Title: Possible Loetz-ish vase ? ID = Loetz
Post by: keith on November 28, 2016, 02:04:54 PM

9 cm tall, indented base and polished rim, thought it was RB Studio from a distance, Loetz 'oil spot' maybe ?  ::) ;D ;D

Start worrying, Keith. Your thoughts were exactly the ones I had. ;)

I don't know (don't know the shapes) but it looks like Loetz papillon - Creta I think but it looks like it could be a blue iridescent over a yellow base?
There is a name for the colour spot (silberiris? possibly), if Loetz is what it is.  It does look like it.

Thanks both, M it seems you're spot on, I just looked through Craig's site and under Loetz Creta Papillon 4th row down is a piece very similar, very pleased, a piece of Loetz for the price of a RB Studio vase and a cheap piece at that !  ;D ;D ;D

You deserve it :)
And it's a very pretty colour combination as well.  Lovely piece.

And it fits in very well with your RB. Both the shape and the decor.
I really did do a double take, it was the green body that finally pushed me in the more expensive direction.
