  1. Why a "Like"? It looks too Italian for my taste (ironic, after I just found out I actually own a vase made in Italy).
  2. Bubble gum, PeptoBismol, a childhood medication called Neumoticine . But also, an extremely rare color in glass, and in that size. Oddly enough, I have a baby blue 13" Rindskopf that will look dand...
  3. Is it hollow? Or does it have a bottom cover? And i agree that indeed, Vetraio is an awesome researcher!
  4. Funny, I generally shun vowls, but I have two of these!
  5. I'll pull out the book as soon as there is some light.
  6. Sorry, Matte means not glossy. Iris means iridescent. The terms are not compatible. This is rubin with soft iridescence. hence, Rubin Glatt.
  7. I HAVE THAT JUG IN OZON DIANA.
  8. See why I call them "flame"?
  9. I have not been able to get an e-mail to you in quite a while. I keep getting them back. I wanted to comment on Sutherland's farewell performance, which broke my heart! As to the vase, ideed the co...
  10. The Czech lamp and chandelier industry has not been given the respect and study it deserves. For me, it all began when I noticed that some of my shades had the same decor as my vases. Those turned o...
  11. To me, it spells Harrrach.
  12. I'D KILL FOR A MELON CISELE IN THIS SHAPE. BUT THOSE WERE OTHER TIMES.
  13. Amazingly, I have been revising my posts, but as I got to this one I happened to have my Riedel in front of me.And sure enough: the resemblance is unmistakable!
  14. Mine is simply the largest piece of Loetz I own, clocking in at 16"
  15. Pure Kralik, I'd say. The prunts would be the marker
  16. I'D SAY: VESUVIAN DECOR ON COBALT SILBERIRIS.
  17. By the way, folks. NO REFERENCE IN ANY OF THE STANDARD LEYENDECKER "BIBLES". Noe I am obsessed with finding out where Charles Beach is buried. This is the man who gave his face to this country as t...
  18. Actually, both Olympia and Arcadia contain uranium. They all glow in the dark.
  19. Alisa's reference is from that volume.
  20. I am referring especifically to Vol. 2 of the 3 volume set edited by James Measell for the Imperial Collectors Society. It shows clearly how the same molds were made for Freehand and Lead Lustre. Th...
  21. I HAVE POSTED NEW PICTURES. TAKE A LOOK.
  22. If Imperial, it would have to be Freehand. The shape is not known to me, but I will look n the Imperial Glass Encyclopedia.
  23. 1920's. THAT'S WHAT CZECH DECO EXPORT MEANS.
  24. CZECHMAN WAS CORRECT. I HAVE JUST FOUND AN ACID ETCHED E&JB STAMP IN ADDITION TO THE PAPER LABEL, JUST LIKE WHAT PATTI HAS. SO THIS TINY PIECE HAS THREE MARKS ON IT!
  25. It is more properly a wide swirl. Ruckl also has this type of decor. Kralik's designers were quite imaginative when it came to Deco color combinations.
  26. THNK YOU ALL!
  27. I FOUND WHY IN 1927 SAILORS CROP UP ALL OVER MAGAZINE COVERS.
  28. The second might be Kralik. I discern a distinctive surface pattern.
  29. AWESOME
  30. KS, YOURS IS THE EMPIRE LINE!
  31. SUPER BINGO, FOUR ACES, JACKPOT. THIS IS E & JB EMPIRE LINE!!!!
  32. I FORGOT TO ADD THESE ARE WIDELY DOCUMENTED.
  33. THANKS FOR THE CLARIFICATION! I'LL LOOK IT UP RIGHT AWAY. IT WAS THE DEALER'S DESCRIPTION.
  34. That color is definitely Kralik.
  35. I'ts probably a B. Could you get a picture of the acid etched E&JB mark? Where there are two, there must be others. I just got a money pin sold as "German silver" but with an E&JB mark. I also fou...
  36. No. They were decorated here.
  37. I believe it's called "the gaze", which males use for a kind of sexual violence.
  38. I have a Persica with the same decor as the marmorierte's.
  39. lOOK AT THE OTHERS. iN TERMS OF THAT PARTICULAR hOSCH CATALOG. I HAVE BEEN MORE THAN LUCKY.
  40. nOW I NEED THE PROVERBIAL CANDLESTICKS (AGH), BUT ONLY IF THEY ARE ENAMELED. AND REMEMBER: BUTLER BROTHERS ALSO REACHED TEXAS . . . .
  41. THERE IS AT LEAST ONE OTHER SHAPE FOR THIS DECOR, AND ALSO AN ALTERNATE DECOR, ALL 13". I AM ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR A 6" IN THIS COLOR.
  42. i have a Tiffin owl lamp . . . .
  43. ZELASKO CALLS IT HECKERT, BUT THEN . . . THIS IS VERY CLOSE TO WHAT I CALL PK "HARLEQUIN"
  44. Awesome! I really ought to post more of my owl collection (which even includes several inkwells!)
  45. I thought Harrach blanks were routinely decorated by other companies. Could this be "Atlas"?
  46. YOU MEAN THE STIRRUP VASE? IT DOES INDEED STICK OUT LIKE A SORE THUMB! THE OTHERS FORM A HARMONIOUS ART NOUVEAU WHOLE.
  47. I can hardly wait! Send the stuff to my glass list as well. You are on it, aren't you?
  48. Interesting, for that bowl was my first Urchin piece and I have kept it to this day.
  49. That's the one. That stand has been multipurpose, for most of my large bowls fit in it. By the way, there is one at the Passau Museum.
  50. This is one of my favorite decors. I recall that I gave mine away on consignment, for I had nowhere to put it. The dealer called to ask me to pick it up, and when I got to the store he had placed it...
