Green cut vase
« on: August 04, 2016, 04:46:30 PM »
Stands about 20cm tall and has a polished pontil. French?
And ideas of origin or age would be great

Reminds me of some of the pieces produced by Richardsons and Stevens & Williams in the 1930s, could be a starting place for more research ?  ;D ;D

Only seen two pieces of Val St Lambert and both of those were marked, not that that means much I've quite a few pieces of S&W's none of which are marked  ::) ;D ;D

My Val St Lambert isn't marked... I must admit that crossed my mind too. We need Annetique!

A lot of VSL pieces aren't signed but this is not one of them.

Most makers of cut-to-clear glass have subcontracted to Ajka Üveggyar and I have seen things very similar to this at Rogaška in Slovenia - also produced by Ajka.

These are the  pieces that made me think it may have been S&W's.... but the rim finish is different so ?

Ross how is the rim/lip of the vase finished?
Keith there is a blue footed vase in the CH British glass book page 144.   Again similar or same pattern as your red, but I can see the similarities in the cuttings design between Ross's green vase and the SW pieces.
However, no cutting on the rim and couldn't see a shape match in the CH book. 
Ivo, would Ajka be doing polished pontil marks do you know?  just in case,as it might lean the searching more to S&W if they don't.
Also knowing how the rim is finished as I think the rims on the S&W pieces which are aren't (edited )notched, are firepolished.
