Title: Rosice "Moravia" bark pattern vase
Post by: Quackers on November 04, 2007, 08:45:10 PM

Hi, another one added to the collection this weekend :).  I'm fairly certain this is Sklo Union, the base is the same as my Rudolf Jurnikl jardinaire, but then I get a bit stuck... I've found reference (www.sklounion.com) to the Moravia range designed by Vadislav Urban, the texture looks right but I don't know if this shape is right?

Thanks Marcus  :chky:.  I take it that I got the designer and factory right then?

How's the book doing?

I really like that one - its like a Whitefriars bark vase and a Rosice jardiniere got together for afternoon delight and look what came of the union....

Yeah, the bark pattern is very similar to the W/f one :-\.  If there are cylindrical vases with the same pattern they must be very close, but presumably the base would be a give-away.  I actually like this blue more than most of the W/f blues - but it isn't a patch on Sky Blue ;D.
