Title: Vera Liskova or fake...you decide!!!
Post by: luke-chelsea on June 21, 2010, 06:44:48 PM

Hi again all
I picked up this pourer today. I have seen a lot of fakes but it looked good. The fakes have tended to have no legs / tummy button but I wondered what you thought. It is about 6 1/2 inches high.
Sorry the picture's not great.
Thanks all

It is probably not Věra Lišková (* 20.9.  1924 Praha, + 17.6. 1985 Praha).

Hi,

I'm sure these aren't Vera Liskova. I have seen several with black and gold labels which have said "Glass by David".


Cheers,


Richard

Thanks again

the taiwanese ones have no legs etc (as shown on your firsr link Anne) So I'd sort of discounted that origin. THe glass by David is a new one on me and they don't seem to have a website. The bird is sweet anyway and i think I will use for peanuts at my next party....will be a talking point no?.
