Topic: Moser? Glass Slipper and a Vase I could use help with

[Catisfaction]

Hi everyone, I have a couple of pieces that I'm having trouble identifying and I hoped that the larger knowledge of European glass here might be able to shed some light.

One piece is what I think could be a Moser glass slipper but I can't actually find anything to determine if it is or not. It certainly has that Austrian glass feeling to it. It measures 5" long and just over 1 1/4" tall. It has a gilded decoration and a rich honey amber coloring.

The other piece, I can't decide if it's something interesting or a florists vase.
It's thick heavy glass like the Scandinavian makers used to use, complete with bevelled edges. It has this textured effect on the outside except for the part where the horse images are. I don't have it to hand because I just moved and everything in packed but it's about 6" tall and 5" square.

One last try.

Sorry can't help with your vase or slipper. You may have a better chance of getting an id if you upload your photos to the message board. Some people will not click on links and it does not help that your first link does not show the whole object in question.

One item per query helps too.

Thanks.

My pics used to show as thumbnails here, I don't know why they don't any more. I never did figure out where to go for the board photo album thing.

Four photos can be added to each post, each photo needs to be 124Kb or smaller though, some help here: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,6522.0.html

Oh of course, I forgot about that! It's been a while since I've been around... can you tell

Thanks for the help!

the horse head may be VSL perhaps?

[Catisfaction]

Thanks for the suggestion Ivo, I'll have a look in that direction.

I just found an acid etched mark on the base of the horse vase which I'm having a hard time making out cause of the dappling.

I also just came across this online which seems to have the same or similar dappling and is mont joye according to the site.

I'll post a pic of the mark in a minute.

Here is the mark.... what you can make out of it. Does it look familiar to anyone?
