Topic: Help to identify this interesting vase

[bohemianczechglass]

I bought this vase in the Czech Republic and the seller advised it was vintage Czech glass. I have looked through all my resources and found nothing - I am beginning to think it has other origins.

The vase is 19 cm tall, 7 cm diameter top and 8 cm diameter bottom . The vase is graded ruby red with black/red at the top. The spiral is clear glass.

I would be grateful for help to identify manufacturer, designer and date.

Thank you

I am with you, it does not look typically Czech. Do you have a photo of the base?

One company to look into is Skruf, two vases with spirals here, one with a Skruf label:

Or Poland...

Colour and clear applications remind of pieces from Tarnowiec glass (by Jerzy Słuczan?) >> for instance this one or >>this one

Hello John and Michael

Thank you for taking the time and looking at my vase. I have taken a good look at the thoughts you both had and I think it must be Polish, Tarnowiec glass, probably by Jerzy Sluczan-Orkusz, 1980's. See the attached photographs which have all the features - red graded glass, rounded bell profile base and clear glass spiral.

What do you think?

Yes think that is a much better bet than Skruf, that colour is quite distinctive - it should have been a clue...

Another Tarnowiec vase with a label.
