9.5" TO THE TIP OF THE HANDLE. NO PONTIL. HEAVY CLEAR GLASS WITH APPLIED JUNGLE RED SPOTTING AND A COBALT BLUE COVER, CASED IN CLEAR. APPLIED BLUE HANDLE, FAINTLY MARKED WITH THE STRAIGHT CZECHOSLOVAKIA MARK.
I HAVE ITS MATCH IN YELLOW, BROWN AND BLUE, THREE OPENINGS. THE BODY IS BLOWN ALL IN ONE PIECE. I FIND THIS KIND OF GLASS MORE COMPLEX TECHNICALLY THAN BALL VASES OR EVEN MURRINE PIECES. NOTICE THAT THE LIP IS NOT CUT FROM THE TOP. A SUPERIOR PIECE.

Hi Al love the bold colouring!
reminds me of this I just posted
http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/67238-loetz-diaspora-3-mouth-vase
Great shape and color! Looks sort of like a George Ohr (pottery) made of glass. Yes, I would think this IS technically very difficult (just like George's twisted wafer-thin pots). Love it!
Nice piece. I think I have a multi color spatter piece like it if you would like to see it.
Also had a couple of the triple spout ones like your yellow/brown one.
Bingo! A Whole community of lovers of this type of glass! Please, send me all photos to alfavil@aol.com.
There are some pics of it here
