    Vase of clear glass underlaid with orange opal glass, approx. 1904 - 1909, dimensions 10 x 12 cm. This vase blown into copper mounting was made for firm Fred Dunn & Co. München. Pergamon was probably a brand used by Fred Dunn & Co. Dunn ordered glass decorative items at Loetz glassworks, which were blown into metal mountings (mainly brass and copper) supplied by Dunn (Pergamon). (Jitka Lnenickova: Loetz/Series II - page 847).
    2 similar vases are in PASK Museum Klatovy - last photo.

      So the range is called ‘Pergamon’ ???

      "PERGAMON" brand is stamped on the bottom metal mounting. On mounting is also stamped "GERMANY" and "GES. GESCH." PERGAMON is a German trademark owned probably by Fred Dunn & Co. It has no connection with glass.

      It seems Fred Dunn was a German American. His name is associated not only with the company producing metal art objects, but also with football in Bavaria. Fred Dunn participated in the creation of the first football club in Munich (1. Münchner FC 1896). From 1914 to 1915 and then from 1921 to 1922, Fred Dunn was President of the Bayern Munich Football Club.

      WOW what a badazs treasure, I absolutely love love love it. THANK YOU for sharing this and all the detailed information, this post has been somewhat helpful in my research on something...... This item reminds me a lot of an object my neighbor showed me, the item is very interesting and unfamiliar to me. It was made the same way this thing is I assume.
      There was a whole background story about my neighbor, Eddie's vessel. He claimed it to be a sacrificial ("offering") altar center piece from a church that existed like 500 or 800 yrs ago in a country in the western part of the world i cant remember what country Eddie said anyhow, Then supposedly the Nazis stole it from somewhere i can't remember and then during one the World Wars supposedly it was looted by American soldiers and of course brought to the United States and then somehow ended up in Mid-Missouri where he purchased it from an estate sale. Eddie claims it was used for sacrificial ceremonies held in a church and would have once held contents like a human hand or some other body part.
      It looked very interesting it had like 5 copper pillars with clear glass blown pertruding out past the pillars and had a lid made of the copper with the glass blown out past the copper just as the vase was.
