Title: Vase I'd
Post by: Glass nana on May 31, 2014, 02:27:06 AM

I am trying to find mfg and info on vase bought in Wurzburg Germany ca. 1962. Tried to incl photo but it tells me file is too large. I took it with my iPad that I am typing on. Vase is approx 10"high, red glass with a lot of gold and dimensional flowers. I see similar on eBay but not exactly. Thank you.

Bohemian or East Europe likely. Was it bought new?

Or Murano. Not Eastern Europe. Hard to tell Czech and Murano stuff like this apart

I've seen many examples of similar decorative work - very thick enameled floral paint-effect - in charity shops in recent times, on a variety of shapes of glass  -  and I'm sure we've have other pieces on the Board not long ago.

Have a look at the attached - which is a Czech production and with a Caesar Crystal label - and has a very similar type of decoration. :)
