Title: Is this a Skrdlovice vase ?
Post by: keez on March 01, 2013, 01:55:50 PM

I think this is a fifties Skrdlovice vase ??
It is 21cm in height and has beautiful blue stripes.
The base is flat polished.

Not wfs streaky either, but it's also not one of the more generic and commonly found vases in this sort of style - it's a lot more sophisticted than those. I'm sure it's something quite good. I don't know what though, sorry. :)

Hi John & Sue,
I see a vase listed at Ebay twice as tall as mine with red lines (search: skrdlovice vase).
The discription is 'Czech Skrdlovice Glassworks 1955', there is also not a clear reference for that I think.

The one on eBay is certainly not Skrdlovice.  It seems like a name the seller has pulled out of a hat, or a name that the seller has noticed commands decent prices.  There was a later Skrdlovice piece by a Beranek that had blue streaks, but not these ones.
