Topic: Pair of uranium green vases - Sowerby? Czech?

[Chris Harrison]

190mm/7.5 inches tall.  VERY strong reaction under UV light.  The undersides of the feet have been partly ground so that they stand well.

When I bought these, they had a seller's label saying Sowerby, but the pattern looks very Czech.

Can anyone confirm or deny?  Thanks.

hello Chris...........have a look at Pamela's glaspavillon, might be a match with............ row 5 in the WALTHER SECTION.........it's the pink vase at the end of the row five.............called HELEN I think.

You need to polish your glasses mate

apologies - it was rather late and I was struggling to find the link to glaspavillon, and obviously grabbed one that was specific rather than just the general link.      Anyway, assume you are agreeing that Walther Helen was the correct match.    thanks.

Thanks, folks.

And it's me that needs to polish me goggles.  I've been though Pamela's vases at least three times and missed it!!

[Chris Harrison]

Obviously not a good seller. 

Pamela has 1936 for it.  It's not in the 1933 catalogue on http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/ and it's gone by 1937.

[Paul S.]

that being the case, might now make it a rare piece if produced for only a limited time, obviously Pamela doesn't have a u. example

Hope so :-)

They're so bright under UV that I'm almost scared to stand too close (no, not really, I've read the science...)
