Topic: Knobbly tall Emerald green vase - smooth pontil

[vidrioguapo]

Well I do have one of these on my Knobbly blog as Skrdlovice........and I am fairly sure I was told that information somewhere on this Forum.  At the time of doing the blog I was not familiar too much with Czech glass so would have asked here for info.  If it is not Skrdlovice, then please absolutely confirm so I will remove the reference ASAP.

Here's the image for mine

vidrioguapo - Sorry if I have bought you into the discussion, the trouble is when making comments on any board, you have to show a source or you will be asked for it.

Does yours have the same ground base as mine though?
There are others on an auction website that have similar decorative prunts but they are said to be Karlovarske but again they all have the normal flat bases.

All three of my Kamei vases, and a Sanyu bowl, have a ground out pontil mark like yours.  The two Hineri vases are polished flat.

I suspect a need to clarify the "tool" used to make the bulge might be a profitable study and help us all make better decisions.

No problem, I am as concerned as you to get the ID correct.Unfortunately I am away from home for a few weeks, so cannot access my vase to see the base, and I just cannot remember what it is like.  I'll make a point of looking on my return.

Hi all. If the vase that vidrioguapo has, has a flat polished base, I would suggest it is one by Magnor, similar to this one. These are much more "Skrdlovice" in weight and glass thickness and base finish, than the green one in this thread. It is more easily appreciated when all three types have been handled. A photo does not make it very clear.
