and again, Hello!
I bought this for my Mom about 25 years ago as a Christmas present.
She loved it but didn't use it much and just a couple of years ago gifted it back to me, ( Mom's been trying to down-size for years,....a lot of treasures have gotten their walking papers :)
I love this little piece and have it in a wood cabinet which I open from time to time, to borrow a vase for flowers or to store something else away.
I was wondering if anyone thought it might be a Loetz piece.
It has a beautiful iridescence, a soft finish, and a handsome, simple, shape.
Thanks,
Tony

Budek.......you are very welcome. Looking at the polished pontil again I see the faint Loetz post 1918 mark.
Go to LOETZ .COM and click "Identifying". There you will see that post 1918 marks used by Loetz.
This is very beautiful, I love it very much!.....:-)
They made this with 2 different ground colors. One is more opaque, the other translucent like yours. Here is mine: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/67310-loetz-ausfhrung-237-vase?in=user
