Topic: Blue 1930's Vase for ID please

[Tinker-Taylor]

...at least I'm thinking 1930's...

Any help appreciated.  I have been searching but I may have vase blindness! 

Thanks in advance.

It looks like the pattern "Balmoral" to me.... Rudolph Schrotter for Inwald?

(happy to be corrected by those who know more than me)

I don't have the catalogues to hand, but quality doesn't look quite good enough to be Inwald... Pattern is not Balmoral as Balmoral has a vine motif running horizontally and lacks the vertical gaps between panels. This design has been discussed before, see here: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,2425.0.html but no conclusion was reached...

[Tinker-Taylor]

The quality is quite poor really.  Oh well, another mystery!  Thanks to all so far.

Seen them in a Millers guide at some point described as Ladder Vases not that it helps with ID but thought I would mention it.

Balmoral has a vine leaf thingy?  :huh: :huh: :huh:

Exactly, that's why it's also known by collectors as 'Heavy Vine':

Some more on the Heavy Vine aka Balmoral pattern on my old website too. This was written in 2007. Please bear in mind that this is my old geocities website and nothing here can be altered, changed, updated etc. We pay a maintenance fee to keep the site live for viewing only, but it is no longer active (because geocities bit the dust). We haven't yet been able to transfer all the old information on to our new website.

Having owned a trio of heavy fine (though without the actual vine!) I can state that the quality and feel similarities between those and this blue 'un are striking.   

I know this doesn't help much though.

Thanks all for the education! :thup:
I had been under the misapprehension that "Balmoral" was the Jacobean style, but with deep ridges between the panels. Now I know better.
