Title: Two Baskets - ID Help
Post by: sawi on July 08, 2013, 08:01:04 PM

can anyone identify these pieces? when were they made?
the baskets are 14,6 cm / 14,9 cm high?
the shape isn't exact the same - there's a tiny difference between the baskets.

many thanks!

They're almost certainly late 19th century and Bohemian, perhaps Welz or Kralik

Nice. I´d agree with Christine and would be leaning towards Welz because of those irregularly angular
shaped spatter.

Nice collection BTW - especially love the Beraneks.  :)

Or perhaps the spikey handles makes them Harrach...

@lustrousstone: thx for your hint!

@dirk: danke dir! :)
in your collection you've declared a basket as franz welz - i've got the same item.
are you sure that it's a welz basket?

I´d say 99% - same shape as this one, which has parts of a FWK label (Franz Welz Klostergrab).  :)
