First, let me warn these two shapes come in other decors. This particular variation, though, consists of opalescent or transparent glass with symmetrical rows of "polka dots" in white. The fan vases are 13" high; the amphora is 10". In addition to the color above, they also appear in opalescent pink, opalescent blue and transparent brown. Their pontils are unevenly shaped but smooth. Notice the last two pictures. In the third,
there are two different semicircles: one in English and one in French. The amphora has the two line mark. So I have three different Kralik marks in two vases! I have not found any other shapes in this decor.
As an interesting aside, when I visited the Kasperski Hori museum in 2006, there was a pair of fans, pink and blue, classified as Loetz!
