Please help me ID this beauty -
Heavy, hot worked, graduated color piece which unfortunately has a big boo-boo - but I bought it years ago because I thought it was something "special"
I thought it was Italian until I saw some interesting IDs on this board pointing to fantastic Czech glass.
Flat bottom - no visible signatures -
So shoot me your best guess - no hurry. I can take more images if you need them.
Thank you,
Pam

Nice piece Pam!
If you like this sort of glass you will find a lot of fellow collectors here! This is, as many here would tell you, a Skrdlovice 1955 vase designed by Jan Kotik, perform a search of the board and you will find several examples, you were on the right track thinking Czech glass, welcome aboard,

Thank you Robert - that helps me.
Forgot to mention the vase is about 8 1/4" tall - and here is an image of the "boo-boo" - more of a big owie.

A gorgeous vase, Pam! I'm still waiting for one to find its way into my Skrdlovice collection. Such a shame about the damage, though. That's a big boo-boo. (http://serve.mysmiley.net/sad/sad0094.gif) (http://www.footballerpictures.co.uk)

You could have that chip ground and polished out, it would not look 'perfect' but it would look a lot better.
