Hi all , lovely millefiori vase signed, i am sure Paul but i cant make out the last name and dont know where it comes from, any help most appreciated.
-
:hi: there:
Googled in a few trys on the last name -- and did find a PAUL COUNTS. Might it be him?
http://www.glass-art.com/ArtistPages/counts.htm
Looks like he used (does) kinda stretched Millefiori designs. So Just a Wild guess here, but a try.... Kinda looks like in the Signature that there could be a *T* as something has been crossed like a *T*. At first to me -- it looked more like a *B* but nothing came up with that.
So ????? just putting this out there as a guess
:-\
ADDED to post:
I think I did hit this one dead on. As I was now looking around for a sample of his signature -- and found one, and I would think (maybe) it is a match.
See here: http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/5921784 Click on the one Photo that shows his signature there.
I am pretty sure this is who it is -----> :thup: :hiclp: PAUL (Allen) COUNTS -- Signature

Hi there - Try this now http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/5921784 (http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/5921784) and if it still does not work - just highlight it with your mouse, click copy -- then paste in address bar. Hopefully it works now. Looks like his pieces demand some $$$$$ 4U :clap:
:hiclp: :hiclp: :hiclp: well done !!
Hey, I just lucked out -- Give the Congrats to Google -- as I was just entering *suspected* names for Glass -- it was Google that figured it out, and provided me a link.
If I was that great at figuring things out -- I would have figured out my Smokey heavy vase with the polished concave base -- LOL -- Still can't figure that one out.
Google has not helped me there much ..... :thud: ...... ;D :24:

Rose, Google is just a search engine, you have to put the right words or names in to get a result, you put the time and energy in finding the answer, YOU deserve a pat on the back!! and i for one thank you.
I now have a beautiful vase and i know it's maker :kissy:
Show us the vase again, there may be new members and some that hav'nt been here for a long while

Honest -- it was Google !!
I tried entering only *what I thought I saw*.
Tried Paul Combs first,
Then Paul Comtbs,
Then Paul Comts,
Then Paul Couts.......and then google asked (at the top of the page) do I mean "Show results for Paul Counts" so I clicked on it.....and Bingo. Well not quite a Bingo till I then tried to find some examples (signed) other pieces by him....the Bingo.
I think... :thup:
So really it was just Google. Without I would have been lost. Yes, It is a search engine, but one that has so much info to sift through and find all these questions we put at it. Gotta love the internet !!!
:kissy: :kissy:
Just do search on the menu bar, type in Smokey Vase, very heavy - CZECH? or just type in Smokey in the search bar (with my username) and it should come up.
I better not *add* the link here -- cuz it is kinda off the topic (the post) of your stunning Vase .......but I could use help on that one, as I am lost on that one. Google is not being Kind to me on that piece.....LOL ;D
