quite unusual vase.... could this be hodspodka for prachen or hlava for bor???
couldnt find an example like this one... and would appreciate every help
-
so would I.
-
it's nice not to be alone...
I think the vase at your website shown at mystery page 3 "ç Satinated black over white, made by Toso (I think) in the fifties"
should be a carlo moretti satinato....
-
Do I spot a ground and polished top rim on your vases? Would be rather unusual for the
mentioned designers... :huh:
-
Stimmt - polished to a high standard.
-
I would says not Hospodka, not Hlava not Prachen or Crystalex, possibly not Czech/Czechoslovakian

I know the green´s a bit too vivid and the polished top rim would usually exclude it, too, but is there a faint
chance they might be Empoli?
I´ve got an amber vase, which I deem to be Empoli. It has similar blobs applied to the outer surface. They
also have these trifoil shear marks. Would the shape of these marks be distinctive in any way or are they
simply the result of an everyday glassmaker´s tool?
-
The colour on this one is far too light to suspect Empoli where they only worked with standard bottle colours, and it would be the first Empoli vase I saw with a cut top. But never say never. Does your brown one have a properly finished rim and a pontil mark?
-
What size is this vase please and could we have a picture of the base please?
:)
thanks

-
20 cms 4". The colour is mouthwash rather than bottle...
-
Does your brown one have a properly finished rim and a pontil mark?
Yes to both questions. That´s why I´ve been phrasing my question very carefully... ;)
I´ll post a picture this evening.
-
Found it. I must admit in my memory they were a bit more similar to the ones on your vases... ::)
Actually most of them are rather unshaped --- blobbbs.
-
I agree they are quite likely from the same blob maker....
