From around 1908. I was not able to locate the exact production number for this form, but there is no doubt that it was a design of Eduard Prochaska. The 4th photo was taken from the Neue Galerie Loetz book. The bowl measures 6 3/4" wide, by 4" high. A lot of work went into creating pieces with this basket weave decoration.

Hello friend, I think I told you already but I LOVE THIS PIECE. I know you are probably busy looking for all the great information on it as we speak. Just wanted to jot down a line or two to let you know I think I have started you a fan club with the last post of mine. GO DAVE!!! I'll be in touch a little later on.
LOL, thanks Jerrod.
