Took a while to find another nice Skrdlovice piece, but it is an extremely nice one:

Pavel Hlava vase, PN 8032/17 (I think; it is more ball shaped than the drawing in the pattern book; around 17 cm high and wide; and heavy).
Has the remains of a Bohemia glass-export and of a Skrdlovice label.

I wonder why this range is not so easy to find; it seems that it has been produced for quite some while (still found in the 1989 catalogue and in the Beranek catalogue and website). And it is really beautiful...

Oh gosh, am I ever envious!  Such a beautiful and large piece.  Michael, though you've found many fantastic items over the past year, I'd say this one's the best to date.  Absolutely fabulous!

Thanks Anik :-*

And I agree -- apart from my tall Jelinek vase this is probably my best Skrdlovice piece to date...

Michael,

A gorgeous piece that I've not seen seen outside the pattern book. Congratulations.

I'm still puzzled why we see so much of some patterns and absolutely none of others.

Thanks David.
I wonder the same (especially with a pattern like this which has been produced for several decades). Maybe they were more expensive?

There was one in the 5th Sypka Czech glass auction, and another one >> here (signed, and a little lighter coloured than mine), that's all I could find...

I'm very pleased with one of my latest additions to my collection:  a very heavy Vladimir Svab vase with a blue internal well and wonderful bubbles (giving a somewhat 3D effect) going around.  It took me some time to find the pattern number, but I did.  It's the 9529 / 25. I'm so clever.  :)

Attractive vase, Anik!
I would have thought Skrdlovice / Beranek at once, but I have never seen it (or heard of the designer) before...
