    I am in love with this shape seen in the first picture and I keep seeing it over and over again in different decors. Does anyone have guesses as to the maker? In the first vase you can see how heavy the copper adventuring was applied (much more of solid chips rather than adventurine powders). The second vase is identical in cobalt. Vase #3 has a powder patern seen in some Ruckl or Welz pieces. The last pic has a confetti with a line decor seen in some Ruckl and Kralik

      PIC 4 décor - it's been tentatively suggested in that past that it might be Scailmont - not by me, I hasten to add. Love the weave décor in pic 3

      Checked Scailmont glass vases too as I have the 4th vase in hand. Nothing like this. They were more prone to use the same plain baluster shapes, with multiple decors

      Frankly, we can all agree it's Czech as the 2nd vase has a mark Made In Czechoslovakia. I discovered this year, in the modern Czech glass Facebook group that this acid applied circle mark was still in use for some decorative glass pieces after 1945.

      That was a shock as we never considered that possibility. Which brings about other ideas, such as old mold shapes being reused, in transition to the new modern creations during the 60s. Just more potential speculation.

      noticed I added a new pattern to this shape. I still wonder if it is Scailmont, Ruckl or other

      Hi, Jericho,
      I just sent this message to truthordare. The vase that I own has similarities to your 4th photo on the right. I can message a photo to you. I am trying to find out what the marking is on our pieces. So, here is what I said to TOD on his post.

      truthordare,
      I own a vase with the same mark as your vase on the right (4th photo). I am also in possession of a photo of a perfume atomizer with this same mark. I was under the impression that my vase was Kralik, and I know that the perfume is a Schlevogt repro. So, now I am wondering if that mark isn't an export mark of a distributor rather than a maker's mark. There is no similarity whatsoever in these three pieces of glass. Did you ever find out what that stamped mark meant?
      Thanks
      Judy P.
