Unusual art nouveau vase from the Bohemia
Item number: 416852
Description: Height 18 cm.
Fine old glass vase in marbled glass from the 1930's.
It can be attributed to s Ernst Steinwald & Co from Teplice, outside Prague.
The vase is mouth blown, cut off on the upper edge and then polished so that it appears with a sharp edge, as opposed to drinking glasses that are heated and have a soft edge.
The vase is in so-called onyx glass, a technique developed in the 1880s at one of Bohemia's large glassworks, might be Loetz or Kralik. The vase is blown in deep red and black glass with a clear overlay.
It is in good condition with expected traces of wear. Unfortunately, it has a chip on the edge.
