Andy, the bottom centre one is as follows; 10 inches high, 9 inches long, 4 inches deep and weighs in at a whopping 18 pounds. It does not get moved often. Terry

Andy:

This is Mans glass! >:D

Sklounion:
The vase is Burian, 7414, 1974. the semi-circular dish by Hora 8502, 1985.
Image of the ash-tray is too indistinct to comment.

Marcus

Andy:
Hi Marcus,
some more photos of the ashtray, one of my favourite pieces, so would be nice to put
a name to it. It has a skrdlovice feel to it, deep amber sommerso effect, green centre,
cased in clear, with abstract cross in each side.
Maybe another Bohemian maker, my guess 80s, but i could be completely on the wrong track!
(and maybe should try new thread for it?)
Thanks again,
Andy

ps, about 3 3/4" each side, and 2 3/4" tall. 1.1kg

Sklounion:
This is almost certainly a Pavel Hlava design for Exbor. Items like this frequently left Exbor without the acid-etched mark. This is probably from around the mid to late 1960s, judging by the colouration. If this had been predominantly red, then it would still be Hlava, but dating some twenty years later.

Marcus
