Title: Dimpled vase ID = Rudolf Jurnikl vase, Rudolfova hut
Post by: Kez on February 01, 2015, 09:28:12 PM

Hello,
This vase is 10 cm's high with a "bird bath" style base, a smooth rim and has dimples/indents along the sides of the vase. Any info is appreciated.
Many thanks
Kez

This looks to me like a Rudolf Jurniki vase, Rudolfova hut from the Czech Republic. Jurniki retired in 1988 but I don't know how old this vase is. See what looks like one of these on page 139 of 'Sklo Union Art Before Industry: 20th century Czech Pressed Glass' by Marcus Newhall. A jolly useful book to have I'd say. It's not often i get to identify a vase i can tell you... I'm usually asking. I think there's a good chance I'm right though...

Just for curiosity; the height of the vase should be rather 20cm (not 10cm) ?  Btw, the name is spelled with an L in the end; Jurnikl. ;)
