    This vase has the PN II 7901, in the pattern book it is labeled "orange opal with russian green, decor 394" and was made for Ludwig Fränkel in Berlin. Although the surrounding patterns are "attributed" to Franz Hofstätter (the shapes), I suspect that the decor of this vase is one of the last designs by Adolf Beckert for the Lötz company, or was influenced by him. Loosely set dots are a well-known style element in his decors, and he often used the shapes of other designers to apply his decors to them. Beckert left the Lötz factory in 1911 when this vase was produced, but remained in contact with the company. Since only this single copy with this decor is noted on the pattern, I assume that the vase shown here is decor 394. Which, however, has not yet been verified.
    Thick, colorless glass with an orange-opal underlay, covered in Russian green, with a hoarfrost pattern is etched  in the French style. Signed "Lötz", height 20.6 cm.

    Loetz: 1911, Vase mit geätztem Dekor, Nummer 394.
    Diese Vase hat die PN II 7901, im Schnittmusterbuch ist sie mit "orangeopal mit russischgrün, Dekor 394" bezeichnet und wurde für Ludwig Fränkel in Berlin hergestellt. Obwohl die umliegenden Schnittmuster Franz Hofstätter "zugeschrieben" sind (die Formen) vermute ich, daß der Dekor dieser Vase einer der letzten Entwürfe von Adolf Beckert für die Firma Lötz ist, oder von ihm beeinflusst wurde. In seinen Dekoren sind locker gesetzte Punkte ein bekanntes Stilelement auch verwandte er öfter die Formen anderer Entwerfer, um darauf seine Dekore aufzubringen. Beckert verließ die Manufaktur Lötz in dem Jahr 1911, als diese Vase produziert wurde, blieb aber weiterhin mit der Firma in Kontakt. Da auf dem Schnittmuster nur dieses einzige Exemplar mit diesem Dekor vermerkt ist, gehe ich davon aus, daß es sich bei der hier gezeigten Vase um das Dekor 394 handelt. Was allerdings noch nicht verifiziert wurde.
    Dickes farbloses Glas mit orangeopalem Unterfang, russischgrün überfangen, raureifartig geätzter Dekor im französischen Stil.
    Signiert "Lötz", Höhe 20,6 cm.
