I grabbed this last week - I was lucky, hadn't been listed long and it was up for offers. So offer accepted and delivered promptly from France. It was interesting because, although I knew it must be Loetz from the handles alone, I had not come across this style of enameling before. So off to Loetz.com to try to find it (I'm such an amateur sometimes) - and it was duly identified as Ausfuehrung 129 - I have no idea on PN, if anyone knows I'd be grateful for more details. Anyway, I'm not sure there is any 129s on CW, so I figure these are something of a rarity. It's a substantial piece and shows evidence of not just the enamel decoration but also of gold flowers around the neck and body, most of which have been lost over time. So a piece that was probably in domestic use as a vessel for actual real flowers - washed and stored for ... maybe.... another Valentine's Day!!!
Stands 8" (19.5cm) and about 6" (16cm) in diametre.
Just noticed that Warren has one listed here.
classic styling of handles body etc & the larger flowering points like mackintosh stylised roses a beauty in all respects
all the very best malkey

Yes! - Mackintosh style - you never miss a trick Malkey - Thanks!
Beautiful! Love the iridescent tri handle shape.
Sammyz - Handles are amazing - you're right, but so much more about the Ausf décors are amazing and many missed IDd as Loetz by sellers: Makes hunting for them fun!
Another Fab find Phil! Very Beautiful! ??
I had added a heart to the end of Beautiful, not regonised unfortunately! But Love it!
This find is a real stunner!!
Thanks Lesley - it really is a beauty!
Thanks Craig - looking forward to the exposé ; )
What a terrific piece, Phil. Good for you for grabbing it! I also saw the Mackintosh roses right away; I think it is a beautiful form of decoration. :)
Hey Michelle - thanks for your comment.
I may have found the PN number for this piece. I think it is PN II/8081. The paper pattern is missing in the book but it lists this pn number as Ausf 129 in saatgrun made for Neurath & Klein Vienna 1911. PN II/8082 is pictured and it looks like your vase with the 3 handles and is made for the same customer, but in opalviolet. Need to verify with experts, but I think this is it.
I totally found it by accident looking for one of my own pieces
Wow mate - that's awesome, thanks so much for this info, very much appreciated
