A lobed iridescent vase with...how can i describe this?... Pulegoso/Efeso type decoration? As well as the bubbles it has dark green (or black) glass inclusions. Ground matte base.
Any ideas?

OOOH NICE! Several companies have used this type of technique:
* Daum developed it - but if it doesn't say so, then it isn't.
* Peill & Pützler had it in production in the sixties/ seventies as Schleiergraphit - check for a vague P on the side or on the underside. If it is P&P, designer is most likely Karl Wiedman, who worked at WMF in the 30s and at Daum "during the second half of the fourties" (go figure).
* Schott Zwiesel had several models in production in the seventies designed by Gangkofner - no marks there,
* And finally, Bengt Orup used oxide inclusions at Johansfors circa 1967.
Multiple choice it seems.

Cheers, i'll look into it, definitely no marks on it though.

:) This thread turned up on a search I was doing for something else. The maker of this vase is Romanian, but we don't know anything more than that yet.
