Interesting.  The weight of the multicoloured one particularly.
They look a bit rustic.  What is the pontil mark like on each of them please?  Just curious to know.

Thanks for sharing btw.

Lovely - thank you.
It's a conundrum for now.

I was reading a long description, translated from Czech, regarding Hantich designs and wondering what some of the items described looked like.  I found these just in case they become relevant to this discussion:

https://emuseum.duesseldorf.de/people/24382/glashuttenwerke-hantich--co/objects

Partly looking because I came across these two vases and wondered from the description I'd read in the article, whether they looked like the described Hantich designs.  They have quite a lot of similarities with the deep blue flakon with applied prunts:

Museum details of the Nuppenflakon here:

I don't know (muses to self).  I'm not convinced to be honest.  We see quite a few of these ' cellophane ' vases here yet nothing is showing up as evidence elsewhere. It's a bit strange.

Not so strange if they were mostly exported to UK.
Need to find their UK importer.

Good point.

following up Johnolyth I came across this, not sure how it relates as no Hantich pages on first glance. https://www.pinterest.co.uk/ciohz/bohemian-glass-patterns-glass-catalogs/

Frank - thank you for the first link to the pINterest !  I've never found that and it's really helpful for other things.

Hantich did make some particular tango type stuff which might be why it's come up (the item appears on a mixed page from multiple maker iirc) but I can't remember on which page they might be. 
Going out but will have a search through that lot later.

The plate.  The colours are pretty good for my lampbase (not sure if you've seen that thread) and other vases that I am sure are from the same maker as my lampbase.  But are they any good for ' cellophane ' vases.  I'm not sure.

Hantich has a really 'difficult to follow' history from the article I was reading.  So that might be why the multiple pinterest page came up.
