This is a little known Kralik glass line. I bought a pair of the small leaf trays in the early 80' and loved them so much they are sitting right next to my desk. Then I was lucky enough to find a large leaf tray in Silveria, which pointed to a Kralik provenance. The others came afterwards--I have never seen one that I did not buy, and yet I have but 6 pieces. Opaque amber or grey/white glass, in qulited/ribbed molds. And yes, all of them have polished pontils! The large leaf and "melon" trays are about 10" across, and ideal for photographs of veggies!
The fan vase is currently listed on E-Bay as Rindskopf, with a hefty price!

I finally found one of these in the melon shape - I've seen it in two different sizes - this one is about ten inches long. I saw a larger one at a show in Richmond once, but way too expensive.
