Post by: flying free on October 28, 2011, 08:05:24 PM: Ivo are these completely smooth to touch?
I've not seen anything like it but I have had a sugar shaker that had a kind of spray on effect all over. I thought it must have been 30's or 40's although that doesn't help you.
ooh what about Belgian? only thinking that because I have had a few Belgian white glass pieces, sort of kitchenalia type pieces.

IÂ´m not sure wether thereÂ´s any resource concerning their output... :-\

That is a very good suggestion. I had been thinking in that direction ever since I managed to identify some solid opaque but undecorated green and blue pieces by finding one stickered. In some way they are quite similar in treatment and finish. The thing with Hoyerswerda is they only operated from 1922-1931 so their output was really limited - so there is not a lot of info available.

Thanks for the suggestion - I'll group them together until more info becomes available

opaque yellow basket somewhere in my cardboxes. Maybe related.... IÂ´ll go rummaging tomorrow...

Post by: David E on October 31, 2011, 11:26:09 AM: Many thanks Ivo :thup: Hard enough to find the correct area on an English-language site, at the best of times!

I am hopeful that I can meet Margit sometime soon and see her collection first-hand - a visit that P has been promising me. Just one teensy-weensy matter of a certain book to complete first ;)

Post by: Ivo on April 10, 2013, 05:56:53 PM: WOW a new name. Never came across it - do you think it is Swedish?

Landed on here: http://de.picclick.com/Antiquitaten-Kunst/Glas-Kristall/Sammlerglas/ might get you going.

Post by: dirk. on April 11, 2013, 07:03:41 PM: Sorry Ivo, no idea really, but... How common was ´Spritzdekor´ outside Germany?
Mainly know them from german and a few french ceramics.
Title: Re: something something something pear shape
Post by: Ivo on April 12, 2013, 07:27:18 AM: All vague spray-on decors on these powder boxes and vase are done on a satinated milk glass so the colour would adhere better. The high gloss decoration on the apple is done on milk glass and probably fired on. I think the kiss kiss decoration on the powder box was done by hand, the sides of these are spray decorated.

I think we have a mix here of Fria glass, possibly Walther, probably Hoyerswerda and maybe something Belgian?
