Czech ? glass twist vase
« on: February 22, 2020, 08:22:25 AM »
Hi
Please can anyone help me identify this vase? I think it is Czech / Bohemian, dating to the 1970s or thereabouts, although it is art nouveau in style.
I bought it from an antique shop in York 8 years ago but the owner had no information about it.
It measures 21 cm high x 7.5 cm widest at base x 10 cm widest at rim. The green glass vase is encased in pink glass which forms the triangular base, The pink casing forms three sinuous curves which join at the top into a circular rim. The base is unmarked.
I’d be grateful for any help.
Best wishes
Sheila

Hi  -  an attractive vase, and may well be Czechoslovakian  -  possibly Skrdlovice or possibly Chribska, though I wouldn't rule out Italian.
Am sure you will get some positive id from others here very soon.

Tough one this, would tend more towards Murano but can't offer any more than that, can also see why Czech has been considered.

Chalet glass also do similar but most with the same shaped triangular bodies look to have pulled ears at the rim. In the link, vase C956 on the third row has a similar top to yours, so maybe worth giving them a wider look.
