Title: Help! Bohemian Cut Crystal. Cannot find label id anywhere... Who done it??? :)
Post by: JDTeppy on January 04, 2016, 05:09:05 PM
Hello Everyone! 

I have a beautiful Bohemian Cut Crystal Bowl.  The piece is approximate 12 inches wide by 5 inches tall.  The crystal ring is amazing if you barely tap the bowl it gives that lovely crystal "ring".  The light refraction is spectacular but I cannot find any identifiers for the partial label on the bowl.

Any help in identifying would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Thanks :)

My opinion only, however what you have with the label says it all, cut Czech & trying to pinpoint a specific manufacturer is difficult with the standard generic label. Honestly most of the time you would not even find a label still attached. Probably 1950s thru 70s era, but just an estimation. I forgot...welcome to the board.

Hi Ohio :)

Thanks for taking time to share. I realized that the partial label gives a lot of information however part of the label is missing that might have given the manufacturer's initials/logo.  At the top of the label there is a raised dome area that has lost the gold foil portion and on the sides the "ribbon" portion of the foil is missing as well. 

In all my research, I have not see any labels with that shape for either a manufacturer or generic issue.  I am hoping someone recognizes the shape and the it might tie to a manufacturer.

Thanks for your help and dating of the piece.
