A Christmas present from my wonderful wife - another rare Loetz Turmalin (my second in as many months!) - This one is in a documented shape 2/536 as shown in the Loetz Musterschnitte (see last photo). Best of all we have now have an example of a new Dek Number - Dek 307 as written in gold ink in the polished pontil. This is an artist's piece - the shape is oblong with side peaks that are pulled up (there are tool marks where this was done).
