Post by: stuart peake on February 25, 2012, 08:44:39 PM

Hi, hope someone can help me to identify the maker, origins and date of these glass posy vases, I was told that they were Victorian when I bought them. I have had them under a UV black light and they glow very bright. the length is 8 inches and the height is 5 inches. Hope someone can help many thanks Stuart.

Hi and welcome to the board.  I can't help as I don't have the books/knowledge on this type of glass at all, but they look gorgeous though!

They look very much like some of the Kralik floraform pieces I've seen. Maybe one of our Bohemian glass people will be by soon to verify it is what they are.

 :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Kralik is certainly a possiblity. And late 19th/early 20th century is right.

Patience please. You only asked yesterday and you've already had some thoughts. Not everyone visits every day. Sometimes confirmed attributions take years.

I wrote Alfredo this morning and he said that it looks like another variation of Kralik's floraform vases. This is most likely what your vases are. Alfredo is an expert on Kralik glass.

So do you think it is kralik glass

I think there were three opinions that they MIGHT be Kralik.

Or better yet, probably Kralik.
