Title: Bohemian ? Need help with mark
Post by: rose de verre on May 29, 2015, 04:15:52 PM

Hello
Nice tall carafe/wine bottle/decanter, am thinking Bohemian, has a mark which I can't interpret. Anybody recognize it ?
All the best
Rose

Your pictures are a bit small to see detail. I'm afraid I can't even see a mark. They can be 120kb each, not per post.

hello Rose  -  welcome back - not heard from you for a while:)

regret I can't make out much of your 'mark' either  -  but if it's what I think it is, then it looks vaguely swan shaped, or perhaps upper case Z ?? -  there are many surface irregularities on glass which get interpreted as marks, unfortunately.

As for the decoration, this looks to be in the form of metallic lines which appear to be painted onto the glass  -  am sure I've seen this previously on early to mid C20 glass  -  probably pieces of a more decorative nature than utility items.

this looks attractive though :)
