    cobaltcobold
    (62 items)

    I immediately loved when I frst saw it. It's elegant and fragile. Is it designed by Cari Zalloni, by Erich Jachmann or Sigrid Kupetz? I don't know. But it figures in a WMF catalogue from 1973. I would be grateful for hints.

      It reminds me of the earlier Clutha glass of Christopher Dresser by James Couper & Sons of Glasgow. It is a really nice solifleur vase. Does it have a name in the catalogue?
      What a treasure to have is that catalogue!
    2. cobaltcobold cobaltcobold, 12 years ago
      Unfortunately I don't possess the catalogue, I have only these reproductions which are too small to be read.

      I always thought this one's Jachmann, but it's only a guess... As soon as I can take picturesagain I'll take thoseof two WMF I think to be Jachmann's. They have simmilar tops to this one.

      Looks great in blue! Butfor some reasson this design I find much nicer in amber
    12. cobaltcobold cobaltcobold, 12 years ago
      This is really very nice. And this was an Ebay Germany? Holy ....! I would have bought it (even if me bank and my psychiatrist agree that I should stop to buy.) @GlasswareGuy do you have the dscription? Did the seller know who designed it? @austrohungaro You are right: It's even nicer in amber!
    13. GlasswareGuy GlasswareGuy, 12 years ago
      it has a great description lol

      **toller Blickfang** sehr dekorative Glasvase aus Nachlass, eventuell Muranoglas

      hope you win the auction ;-)
    14. cobaltcobold cobaltcobold, 12 years ago
      @GlasswareGuy Okay, I found it:

      Unfortunately it has a chip. Is it really the same? In any case it's taller - 27 cm, mine is 22 cm. the fact is, that it would really be good to have the WMF catalogue.
    15. GlasswareGuy GlasswareGuy, 12 years ago
      well, you be the judge of that..
      it looks pretty much identical but you never know of course
    16. AmberRose AmberRose, 12 years ago
      Oh such a thin neck and deep color. What a spectacular combination.
    17. cobaltcobold cobaltcobold, 12 years ago
      Thank you, AmberRose. It's one of my favorite pieces. And I still don't know the designer.
    18. AmberRose AmberRose, 12 years ago
      I wish I knew cobaltcobold!
    19. cobaltcobold cobaltcobold, 12 years ago
      I have new informations! Seems really to be Cari Zalloni. It existed in different sizes and colors: blue, red, green and amber.

      I have 2 in red.
      One problem is that the opening are so small it is difficult to remove any cloudiness from the insides

      Looks like a vase by Tom Connally for Greenwich Flint Craft glass from 1969
