In terms of personal taste, Olympia may not be the most exciting Loetz decor, but what may go unsaid with color or decoration can be said with form, with function, and with quality. This vase is about 5" tall, has a fire polished rim, perfectly ground and polished pontil, and the tell-tale glow under black light. In the body of the vase are four indents around the bottom half, with a nice taper up to the flared rim. It's clean, it's in great condition, and it has a great jugendstil shape. Best of all, the price was definitely right. :)
