    I just found this unusual periwinkle blue Tango compote (I believe it is a compote, the seller described it as a 'blue cake plate'...) - I absolutely love the colors - it almost glows. The top portion is a beautiful milky blue, then, below the clear collar, the lower half of the piece is a deeper, richer blue. I have never seen a compote in this exact form before, but I do believe it to be made by Loetz due to its signature and the quality of the piece. (Any comments on this are appreciated.) It measures 8.75" across and 5" in height. (Update 1/11/04 - the Loetz blue color used here has been identified as being called 'Himmelblau' by Warren!)

      Lee, I am blown away by the stunning pieces of Bohemian glass that you show us on CW - I have no idea how you find them all, but I really enjoy you sharing them with us all!

      Michelle, WOW Thank you for saying that!!! I am just a newbie at Bohemian glassware...and boy did I buy some duds at first...but I got bitten hard by the first few vases I had! Then I was soooooo blessed to have some of the greatest Mentors. To show and teach me everyday about Loetz's, Kralik's and Rindskopfs ect. All what you see it there collaboration and teaching me the art and love of glassware. I am thankful and blessed to be linked with such fine Teachers :)
      So in an nutshell its not all me....but everyone behind me pushing me towards learning and loving each fantastic vase...thank you XOXO
      Lee
