Silberiris is a difficult term to describe. It literally means "silver iridescence". Gold is the most often used, in genres such as Astartig, Astraa, the trunk vases and the pulled chain vases. I have a rare "Candia Rusticana"-- clear glass with golden iridescence. I shall post other examples of Candia Silberiris. I picked up the last vase at our local flea market. A well known Holubetz design, the dealer never forgave me for what he sold it for!

A wonderful shape study. Really nice!
Hi Alfredo ... how would you describe the ones on the left ? Green glass with gold irridescence ?
Exactly! I just looked at the bottom and you can see the green glass pontil and the amber yellow covering.
This is fast becoming my favorite finish - simple, elegant, and beautiful. Like Haagen-Dasz Honey Vanilla :)
Love the 'baby bottle' on the left, though admittedly if I had my pick it would be the stunner on the far right! Simply beautiful.
