Title: id request for uranium vase
Post by: Paul S. on May 26, 2012, 06:18:09 PM
These sideways triangles are a very similar feature to the decoration used on some of the Rosice vases (Sklo Union CD) - but this isn't one of theirs, as far as I can see  -  the foot shape is a common one.      Appears quite tall for a 'sundae' style of vase  -  9.25"/235mm - and a quite oily yellowish/green sort of uranium.    The underside of the foot has a fairly wide flat outer rim, typical of older pieces, and show reasonable wear.     I've looked at Pamela's museum pictures, Bagley, Sowerby - but no joy.       You can see the 'sunshine' glow, so no need for a u.v. picture.           If anyone has any thoughts, please do share them, and thanks for looking. :)
