Well here it is. The mystery piece finally arrive from Europe. It stands 8.25" high. I can't say that I am blown away by it but I like it.
I have included a collage of pieces with “brain/maze” pattern that I assume were made by Kralik. Did other houses use this “brain” or “maze” pattern?

I have a line drawing with a brain pattern from Loetz. I have also seen a maze brain pattern from webb or stevens and williams can't remember which it was. So I am guessing it was probably a wide spread fad for awhile.

When I say a maze pattern from webb or stevens and williams, I mean literally the pattern on a design page. I haven't see the actual glass.
it's fantastic i love it.. my opinion is kralik without a doubt!
beautiful:)
