Title: Is this a Josef Hospodka piece?
Post by: kerry on October 04, 2009, 10:33:07 PM

Hi, I have been told this maybe a Josef Hospodka piece and is collectable, any help would be really appreciated.  I have posted another piece from the same shop I am thinking of buying - its quite lovely - but I have no idea of who/what/where it is - its coming next, thanks, Kerry.
(the vase measures 7.25 inches in height,The top opening measures 3.5 inches in diameter The base measures just over 2.25 inches in diameter )

Hi:

Looks like Chribska to me, and possibly Hospodka. A small point: Chribska wasn't part of Sklo Union, which was a group of plants producing pressed glass. This piece is blown and hot-worked.

Good start to a collection.

   Hi Kerry,

                Glad you've got a positive ID on your lovely vase. When I saw it on WF.com I thought it was Chribska and said as much,but cos I wasn't positive I directed you here where there are far better brains than I!! I found this in the resolved section of this board that you may like to look at, gives more info on your vase.
