I have this object by Emanuel Beranek, 1958, pattern 5869.
It retains its gold sticker “Hand made Skrdlovice Czechoslovakia” on its foot.
It is h. 23 cm. The blue fades to pink.
Thanks to both Jindrich Parík and Robert Bevan-Jones for their help in identifying it and giving me the pattern number. Robert also mentioned that this was a piece done when Emanuel was retiring from the glassworks. I have been collecting Bohemian glass of various periods for many years now and I had not seen another like this Beranek before. I liked it initially because of its similarity to Timo Sarpaneva’s “orkidea”.

   Beautiful piece Vet, can just grasp the pink but the wood distorts it a little. the shape and form is so yummy.

   Thanks mon amie scandinavian_pieces. I'll have a go at getting the pink!

   I hope the pink is clearer now.
   The pink/blue combination is a trademark of Emanuel Beranek that I really like.
   How he did it?
   I have no idea.

   Fabulous design. Very sexy !
   You see it occasionally on Ebay Germany.
   Pieces with an intact Skrdlovice label are hard to find. Congrats !
