Topic: Shallow green vase ?

A photo on a black background might be useful.

Keep thinking Loetz and Melusin but it is not quite right:

Something familiar about the squat shape but I can't pin it down.

Thanks John !,I see what you mean they ‘re some striking similarities.I’ll take some images with a black background when I’ve got better light👍

Here’s some badly lit images from last night and this morning,it does seem very like Melusin! especially
St 11-4241 with the rim characteristics , colour finish etc being a dead ringer .It’s tricky to photo and changes hourly !?

Couple more

There is a good chance that is a piece of Melusin, finding another piece of Loetz with this same shape would help confirm it (you could try checking every single example on the Loetz.com website, it would take time but be an education!), I have never handled a piece of Melusin and that is making me cautious.

Thanks John,I’ve been through a few of the decors looking at the shapes,don’t mind it at all !it’s very interesting .The closest so far is a piece of Spiraloptisch from 1905 , the same period as Melusin

Ah yes, this one: https://www.loetz.com/decors-a-z/image?view=image&format=raw&type=img&id=3311

That for me is the clincher. Well spotted and all the way from A to S before you found it! It is an utterly fabulous website and resource.

Thanks again John , I believe it is Loetz Melusin  piece even though when I found it Loetz wasn’t my first thought and I went down the wrong rabbit hole ! .So thanks for the shove in the right direction and yes the Loetz site is a fantastic resource .
