Anyone who has read any of my previous posts would be aware that for sometime I have been after Knizek pieces. Ambition - to create a small collection of these wonderful pieces and here is my latest, a wonderful rose water sprinkler.
Much of the process and history of these pieces has been commented on and written about in other posts on CW. I dont think there is much need to go into the detail here. Rare and from an art glass persepctive they are historically significant. Warren has a simple and concise description of these pieces here: https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/129076-josef-knizek-two-handled-bowl-antonienh?in=442-activity.

This is a truly extraordinary beautiful piece. Congratulations.
Phil, I am so glad you have found another Knizek! I do know how much you have been searching for them. I love the form of this one, but seeing them together as a trio really makes each one even better due to the contrast in shapes. The are really beautiful.
Thank you Michelle, I always appreciate your kind and thoughtful comments ; )
