These are some of my new Kralik pieces from the 30's. The first two are a design shift from a rare 1930's Loetz decor: vase. 10"; bowl 6" high, 10" in diameter. The second st of pictures shows Kralik's use of the diamond optic pattern in transparent colors with contrasting handles. Notice that in the last picture, the shape is the same, but the handles are different (Butler Brothers catalog, 1930) Sizes run 8" to 9". Though none of the pieces have pontils, only the first exhibits a rim cut from the top . All the others have fire-polished rims. No marks on any.
