Hello,
As i am new to Bohemian glass, I just wanted to show my second find. I did not know at the time what I was buying but recognised a certain quality. As i waited for it to be delivered, I managed to identify it through a well known on-line source who was happy to authenticate it through some images. It's by Joseph Riedel and dated 1880-1885.
It's a bit knocked here and there and in between the panther and the black glass base, there's a layer of some metal foil that has corroded with time, and now gives a yellowy/orangy glow to the piece. It's only a tiny little thing, 11,5 cm long, 5,5 cm wide and 7 cm in height.
I decided not to clean it completely, I think it looks nice a little aged.
