It was made by both Brockwitz and later Bernsdorf, who named it HEIDI then  :)

Hi Pamela :)
have not been here in quite some time but was most pleased when this thread came up on Google.

I noticed this vase was shown in both Bernsdorf and Brockwitz on your website...so this explains why!

A question...
Is there any way to determine if a vase is one or the other?
I need to decide which one of the two made the pink vase like this that I have to list


thanks so much :)

 :hi: Cheri, it's nice to see you back again and I do hope that Marc and you are fine!

Now that we know that Brockwitz did not completely cease production in 1941, but produced a  simpler range  (http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/VVB-Messe-1950.229+B6YmFja1BJRD0yMjkmcHJvZHVjdElEPTk1MTEmcGlkX3Byb2R1Y3Q9MjI5JmRldGFpbD0_.0.html) of glass during 1950ies, we take it that several of the original Brockwitz-moulds went to different VEB-works such as Bernsdorf and Schwepnitz.

Just some more examples, and there are a lot more on other pages in these catalogues:

 Brockwitz 1941  (http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/Brockwitz-1941.86+B6YmFja1BJRD04NiZwcm9kdWN0SUQ9Mzc0NyZwaWRfcHJvZHVjdD04NiZkZXRhaWw9.0.html)

 Bernsdorf 1954  (http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/Ankerglas-Bernsdorf-1951-54.193+B6YmFja1BJRD0xOTMmcHJvZHVjdElEPTgwODMmcGlkX3Byb2R1Y3Q9MTkzJmRldGFpbD0_.0.html)

For me it's impossible to determine the factory and year of production. 'Brockwitz design' is correct anyway, I'd say.
