Latest addition to the collection is this Red, Orange and Yellow spatter with dark blue spatter to a heavy base, which also shows some aventurine like inclusions. I thought it may be Ruckl, and although the base is pretty thick and heavy the rest of the bowl is not as thick as one might expect for Ruckl. Kralik is obviously another of the obvious suspects, but the aventurine, at least for me, excludes that manufacturer. So is it possibly Welz??
Any and all suggestions are welcome..

Welz has a Red/Yellow/Black (Cobalt) décor but I've never seen it with all the black at the base. On the other hand Welz used a lot of aventurine, but just speculation. I was watching this but missed the auction! I expected to see it again here.....
Hi Peggy - Actually that black is not black it's deep blue (cobalt) in places it appears layered and therefore almost black.
Yes, which is why I put cobalt in brackets after Black in my comment. In the Welz décor called Red/Yellow/Black the black is indeed cobalt. I've never seen aventurine in one of these décors before and which is why it grabbed my attention and why I was speculating that this maybe something new/different
Sorry Peggy, I misunderstood. Thank you for the feedback, very much appreciated.
No problems at all :) Interesting piece though!
I think this is kralik... although Ruckl could work too... it needs to match a known decor...
Thanks for sending that Lisa - it's certainly a dead-ringer in terms of shape.
I love the bold colors Phil... it's definitely not a wallflower!
