Loetz Rusticana Vase -maybe, or maybe not

So we bought this vase, approximately 4 1/2" H. was bought at a local Auction last Sunday. They had 3 pieces of what they called Loetz. While this was the only one we got, I'm concern with the broken pontil. I thought that Loetz always have a large smooth pontil.

Any guess?

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

DEFINALETY NOT LOETZ RUSTICANA.....IT WOULD HAVE LITTLE "WOODY KNOTS" IN THE SURFACE.
I SAY KRALIK "DRAPED".

...and your right, if the Loetz piece has a pontil, its always well polished. There are Loetz pieces that do not have pontils at all. Some sources on the internet will tell you otherwise. They are wrong.
