    Any help with these shapes or decors would be appreciated - they are all unmarked and the first two are satin glass and the second pair are cased in clear.
    Looking at what is described as Ruckl (Rueckl?) online, I thought the first pair could well be... and the tango links seem to support that.
    Any similar?

      Love the blue one especially!...:-)

      The satin vases are lovely - I just love that finish on Czech glass.
    3. IanBrighton IanBrighton, 11 years ago
      I only - rather capriciously - added Ruckl to the title as I do think the 2nd vase is rather coral-red.
      Also - umlauts mean we should maybe talk about Rueckl?
      Joking apart, if anyone has anything in a similar shape, or more light to cast on this quartet (I think more likely the first two), I would be delighted.

      I mean comparing the left-hand urn to the vase in this link. Assuming a correct ascription. And I am interested in how similar the shapes are in the first two. http://rover.rajce.idnes.cz/Tango_sklo/#44_tango_sklo_Antonin_Ruckl_a_synove_1918_-_1925_.jpg

      Here's one of Dirk's photos from Novy Bor with some vases of similar shape:
      https://picasaweb.google.com/108140812446658939096/CzechTrip?authkey=Gv1sRgCNz6s9vqyMSeRQ#5643730253067267730

      Similar, but not the same.
      They were taken at Novy Bor in the first exhibition in 2011.
      They were together in the Rueckl cabinet.

      The 'rover' photos come from the third reincarnation of the Tango exhibition at the Muzeum Vysociny Havlickuv Brod.

      At the second exhibition in Teplice the red vase was in a cabinet next to the Welz, Tomschick pieces. A cabinet that contains pieces that have changed.
      The other blue/red vase was in the Rueckl cabinet still.

      But I agree with you, the matte finished pieces all ended up in the Rueckl cabinets.

      Even the experts at the Tango exhibition were very 'fluid' in their attributions.

      Does CW have umlauts yet?

      Rückl.

    7. IanBrighton IanBrighton, 11 years ago
      Haha. I like "fluid" - I think you are confirming what I thought that there is still debate.
      I am interested to know if anyone has any similar in different decors. One just sold on ebay with a pure electric blue top half. Very nice.

      Hey Ian, There are a few on CW but this is the only one I can find at the moment. See the satin glass rose bowl on the right for your shape in a different decor:

      Thanks for the CW information and thanks for Vetraio's links. Great photos (and lots of different themes). The ebay piece was:

      I think the actual name is Rückl, but it isn't rare to see it written in a less "Germanic" way as Rueckl... It's just the very same thing about Lötz/Loetz
