Here is a 6"W x 4 1-2"H (fin) brown glass dolphin made by artist Miroslav Janku for Zelezny Brod Sklo (ZBS), with Bohemia Czechoslovakia label ca the 1960s

Beautifully modeled !~
Beautiful dolphin!! I love the size and the way he's modeled.
Nice form, looks like it is jumping above the waves!
You'll have to look up Spinner dolphins if you don't know them, because I think that's what he is! It's the jumping pose and the HUGE dorsal fin, which come to think of it, I think Orca whales have them too?
He's got a great dynamic jumping pose- looks very strong and fast!
Thank you very much for the love

Thanks Phil for your terrific praise, Janku was a great Czech glassmaker & I'm so thrilled to have one of his beautiful animals. The form and motion of the dolphin is wonderfully modeled here, he was such a master artist
Scott thank you for your awesome compliment for this dolphin, it is a good size and has great style with the nicely formed bottle nose & fins. I actually thought it might have been a shark at first but the angled fins (and comparison to other Janku fish) makes it a definite gorgeous dolphin
Thank you MrsT for your super comment and you are so right, it appears to be wave hopping as you see with very happy dolphins. A fish I am proud to add to my collection
Lauren you're absolutely on point, it's a spinner dolphin alright! You are so knowledgeable about the different varieties of animals & I'm so grateful for your guidance :) I agree it's a very strong, active pose that makes him appear to be breaking the waves out in the ocean (they look so much happier at sea as opposed to confined in aquatic parks & such). Fantastic praise & knowledge my friend
Thank you BB2 for the love for this glass dolphin, very glad you liked it and really appreciate the kind thought
