Title: Art Nouveau or Art Deco perhaps ID required
Post by: kazucu on June 18, 2011, 04:14:39 PM

Does anyone recognise the design or maker of this vase ?  I presume it is Art Deco'ish but your thoughts would be appreciated.
It is 23.5cm high and is green glass tapering to pink at the neck.  The body of the vase has an irridescent finish and the pink appears to be applied on the inside.

I was hoping that was the case.  Thanks.
I'll keep searching and see if I can pin down a maker or similar design.

Whats the base like? Has it a polished pontil mark?

It does look similar! Certainly looks like Bohemian , early 20thC , nice vase. Hope its Loetz, im sure someone will pop in and confirm that.

It would be nice to know if it was.  I haven't seen any loetz with the way the opaque pink has been applied though, as I say it almost appears to have been applied on the inside.  Whatever it is its a welcome addition to my slowly growing collection.

Yes there is signs of wear to the base and a some tiny fleabites to the rim.  Are there any good websites for this type of glass?
