    Because, this type of decortive glass piece was very popular yet today is not really studied by Czech collectors. There seems to be a growing misconception that Kralik & Sons did not produce them, or of they did, it was in a small number.

    I'm finding the opposite is true, and having the usual effect with my results, not taken seriously, and blamed for ulterior motives. Yet, I have shown in the past that I am a serious collector and do spent much time and funds to learn everything I can. Do I have to explain my conclusions to people who reject my ideas at every turn here on CW, no I don't.

    The images are used with permission from Tom Felt and Deborah Truitt, as well as my own collection pieces. 1 and 2 are the Kralik bambus decor baskets, textured on exterior surface and in a translucent glass case one from BB and one from Truitt. 3 is my own basket same shape, red and green spatter, image 4, another interesting Kralik basket form and decor from Truitt Volume II.

      I feel the same way Ms.CrystalShip. that favorite combination of colors was often used by this company, so it was good to find it, post it, and get other examples.
