This one confused me a bit, to me it looks to be Loetz, but it was unusually cheap on ebay and I won it being only the second bidder with low starting price, reasonably good listing with info and pictures and all, and it did mention it's Loetz in title... all that made me scratch my head, so what's your thoughts?

These show up fairly often on eBay. They usually have a silver rim. It looks like yours has had the rim cut down a little. I think most people have come to the conclusion these were made by Kralik. But they are not Loetz, that much is certain.
yes I thought about the rim, but it looks really good, did the silver go on all of them? I thought that was on ones going to England, this one is from France, could it be that they had minor modifications depending on place of destination?
I was not completely convinced on Loetz either but I love Maria Kirchner designs for Loetz and this gave me feeling of them so I'm very happy with it :D
