I recently bought these two pieces. The vase was assigned by the seller as a Stevens & Williams product and a jar with a lid as an unknown glassworks. I am convinced that this is the same manufacturer and I am inclined to the opinion of Dr. K. Hasselbach that this is an early production of the Loetz glassworks (see: Fig. No. 78.1 - 79.02 study by Dr. Hasselbach Early Loetz production 1880-1897 at www.loezt.com).
The items were made around 1880-1885. The vase is UV reactive and has dimensions of 27.7 cm x 16 cm. Jar with lid - ultramarine roughly crackled glass (I think this is a decor Krokodil) are 23 x 11,7 cm. Unfortunately, the fruit of the strawberry is missing from the lid.

LOVE these-- was surprised last year when I found that they have been attributed to loetz.
I bought years ago as Stevens and williams and had come to believe that they were Harach pieces.

That vase is HUGE !!.!.!! WOW !!!
Stunning vases - I have a small, simple one in the same colour as the large vase on the left. Mine has been damaged & repaired. It glows green under UV light, as well, don't know if you've tested yours, Ales, but it should do the same. Will post my vase for comparison, too.
Awesome
never so one of this "in vivo"
