  1. To me it looks like this is acid cut with a silver deposit. My gut on these is Goldberg.
  2. There were a couple like this in the back room of the PMC. I have one with stereotypical bohemian decoration. I think bohemian is a safe bet.
  3. places like teleflora and whatnot buy from places like mexico. most florist ware is mexican or Chinese.
  4. you won't like my take on it. Modern florist ware.
  5. It's really not Poschinger. There is no evidence to support that it is. This is a markedloy different decor from the Poschinger decors. There is far more evidence showing it would be one of the t...
  6. So, to recap. Poschinger solid color, orangish dots with opal glass. the dots are at the base of the glass. poschinger multiple color, two colors in the dots (but none show this color combinatio...
  7. the kind of poschinger I was talking about with swirls is the kind with more than one color in the dots.
  8. yeah, that's the solid color version. your piece has multiple colors and a band at the top. the band at the top of yours is glass. the rim is silver.
  9. no one remarked PK on yours LLL.. I personally think it's got a lot in common with PK, which so often has a top decoration to match the dotting on the base. the poschinger form of Helios is one color....
  10. Thanks JAN those are Legras Wisteria vases.
  11. I think you're right on target with murano
  12. Very cool as well!
  13. LOL thanks, yeah drommie on the shelf was an excellent photo. She owns any shelf she chooses to inhabit.
  14. It's harrach. and yeah these are totally worth billions and billions of dollars. Kind of the same way that harrach vase with the sun is worth 127,000 on ebay with a fake Daum signature. ;)
  15. these are all a lot of fun
  16. I've only got two other owls. a Goebel and a Fenton. I never focused on any particular animal i'd pick up if I thought it was neat. I've always kind of wanted a tiffin cat but never found one that was...
  17. LOL yup
  18. I got an 18 inch owl vase last week. I wasn't going to post it but I guess I will in solidarity of owls everywhere. LOL.
  19. Glasfabrik Elisabeth makes more sense to me than Kralik or Heckert. I love these.
  20. Passau has a whole wall of Harrach glass with decoration that isn't what you'd normally associate with them. I asked Deb Truitt what she thought of that, if it was correct. She said of course they d...
  21. I think I have seen a name for these before but I can't remember.. Someone out there knows it I am sure.
  22. spray painted on color to a clear molded glass. (or some variation thereof.) Not hyalith glass. (the black matte glass from czech) I've seen these on and off thru the years. I think it's American. I...
  23. you could do a ledge http://www.potterybarn.com/products/rustic-wood-ledge/?pkey=cledge-shelf& http://www.potterybarn.com/products/rustic-wood-shelf/?pkey=cledge-shelf&
  24. I have a piece that is stylistically similar but dissimilar in coloring. Mine is Legras. the coloring is so different though.. http://www.thegildedcurio.com/item-Legras-737.html but it is two t...
  25. I love the deals on teh grimey ones but ugh.. nastay. I'd rather they cleaned it up and still gave me a great deal :)
  26. no, this is not plated amberina. the plated amberina is in the pic from live auctioneers. this is NOT that.
  27. http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/14049486_plated-amberina-drinking-glass this is plated amberina. part of the glass looks like amberina but the purple stripes go all the way to the base. in...
  28. Definitely not plated amberina. the color goes all teh way to the bottom. it's not any kind of amberina.
  29. There are examples of annin thru the late 20's or 30's. (something like that) in one of the museums that Jitka was curating the glass exhibit. it focused on Kralik/myers neffe and Loetz/annin. It had ...
  30. It's got great coloring, but I don't think it's Alexandrite. Alexandrite is more like an amberina than this is.
  31. I do really love these bright clambroth type pieces with the hotworking (bambus in particular)
  32. totally jelly
  33. to my knowledge it was always part of loetz.
  34. Some Tiffany is very nice, but I actually think at heart even if the two companies were neck and neck in price I'd still prefer loetz over all.
  35. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/J_bv2ySqprKbG2KobG7UU_iepaC6HmOqHRqF2S98L-U?feat=directlink PMC case 44 is hosch, palda, hantich and a few other resellers... not a ton of a help with final ma...
  36. yup. it's not 2/48 definitely 2748 and the other is definitely 2776 they might be shape numbers or they might be something else. I am unclear of the role of Annin and early loetz but it appears t...
  37. I am waiting for Jitka's new book on this era before I make any conclusions on what those numbers may mean. I think there is definitely more than one thing that those numbers could mean. Not sure wh...
  38. the base glass color on both of those two pieces is identical.
  39. fantastic! I'm as green as that seaweed!
  40. It would have had a lid... :) not a frog.. this is an urn type shape. 1870 +/- 10 or 15 years.
  41. Definitely! it's a stunner!
  42. Before anyone chimes in and says but a lot of uranium glass was made after ww1.. I mean in particular in use as an ingredient to the inner layer of a cased glass piece.
  43. you're not bothering me. I think this is a lot older than the 60's. I think this is from 1900-1920. with overlay I wasn't talking about the exbor type stuff either. I was talking about early work. the...
  44. the bohemians even sold glass to the italians. Saliviati bought from a few bohemian makers.
  45. and yes this piece has a ton of wear.
  46. the bohemians did a lot of various overlay work.
  47. did Italians work with uranium glass much. I just realized I can't think of any examples I've seen from them with that feature either.
  48. what stillwater said. you see these in dept stores. the clear glass isn't the final nail in the coffin. It is something on drapy glass that indicates new vs bohemian. (not sure about italian) but you ...
  49. Thanks! Yeah, I know. I'm totally in love with it. it's way cooler in hand then the pics. The weirdness factor on this makes me love it for some reason. I think it's because someone spent A LOT of tim...
  50. back to the point, Just because there is one signed with that certain style by a student doesn't mean he was the only one doing that design. I could be wrong but I don't think it worked like that. I ...
