Here we have a newly arrived, pretty little pair of white opalescent Kralik vases with pink spots, 7 1/4" tall. Knowing Czechman's fondness for pink and his threat to light a fire under me, I thought I should probably post them ... I hope you like them!

STUNNING AND VERY BEAUTIFUL:)
Thank you, Sean!
Thank you Obscurities! I noticed today that I seem to be doing quite well for pairs at the moment. I rather like them too ...
Bravo!.. they are so angelic like
Thank you Czechman. Angelic is just the right word! If I have time tomorrow, there might be a piece of Rindskopf .... but not pink.
And thank you Vetraio50!
Jealous much!! So pretty!!
Thank you Slave-to-glass. They are pretty - even more so in real life as they are ribbed inside, which gives a rippled effect in the light.
Thank you, Inky, Austro and Scandi!
Thank you, LoetzDance!
Your vases are Rinskopf not Kralik!
Thank you manddmoir and Mac63!
As for my attributions - well we all know I get them more wrong than right! However, this shape and decor is on Kralik-glass.com as Kralik, so I'll let you experts fight it out!
LOL...when i saw this dragonfly's comment the other day it made me chuckle...hi nicole hope all is well!! ;)
Hi Gary - all good just stupidly busy at work!
Londonloetzlearner - do you refer to the so-called Kralik 'colouredspot' decor which shows a shape similar to your vases but has a much broader stem and lacks the rim which is sometimes' rough' to take a silver collar or is there another Kralik example that you refer to?
Well, that's me told. I know when to give up - I'm obviously even more wrong than usual! I shall retire from the field while I still have the last shreds of my dignity - grace being beyond me.
Well, Scandi, it seems that I dig in with happy ignorance right up until the mine explodes in my face! That seems to happen quite a lot, but I'm hoping eventually I might learn something .... Or maybe get one right! ; )
Thank you, Obscurities!
Well said Obscurities!.. Nicole, nothing about these look rindskopf..clue #1
what happend to the Dragon dude?
and for the record my chuckle comment was in refferance to other "hecklers" in the past.. you know who LLL :)
How could you not like even love them!!!!... with their lovely elegant shape and delicate colouring, they are...exquisite!....:-)
I was hoping to learn from 'Obscurities' and 'czechman' what the evidence was for these being 'most certainly Kralik' and not Rinskopf but things have gone very quiet since my posting???

dragonfly: why do your post keep "disapearing" ?? i think your here for one reason and one reason only.. to cause arguments and to work the nerves of others..period ... and furthermore, if you are convinced that your vases are "rindskopf" which are no longer listed i might add, then great! enjoy your rindskopf vases!! but LLL's vase's are most certainly Kralik..
dragonfly: must be a website error..now your post are all showing.. one day they are showing, one day they are not..am i the only one thats noticed this happening? if that is the case i apologize for my comment regarding your post disapearing.. and you just wanting to cause trble.. regards and happy collecting
thanks craig for clearing that up for me!
i thought i had lost it completely lmao
I used a second 'user name' as access could not be gained with the original one. No real evidence for Kralik then, only reference to a 'site' that shows a similar shape and a different decor. I'll leave it there! Research can only move forward with the opportunity for informed discussion and evidence presented freely for all to consider - surely an aim of a forum such as this? An open mind and a little humility go a long way
I HAVE SPENT THE WHOLE MORNING PREPARING DOCUMENTATION ON THE DIANA LINE. IF ANYONE WHO IS NOT PART OF THE KRALIK LIST WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE IT, PLEASE WRITE ME AT ALFAVIL@AOL.COM
Thanks Al.
And thank you Deanteaks and LoetzBuddies.
