    I seriously never find stuff this good! Vase stands 10 3/4" to top of handle. Handle is a thorny branch. Anyone know who made this?

    Possibly Kralik. I'll see if I can get confirmation.

    Well, I jumped the gun a bit. It isn't Kralik.

    It is actually a Loetz piece

    I cross posted your pics and got a response from Deb Fitzsimmons co-founder of www.loetz.com

    This is what she had to say

    Definitely Loetz - I would describe it as a "yellow-green glatt with Silberiris branches". There is no specific decor name or Ausf # that I am aware of .

    Deb provided me with a little more information.

    Here's what the paper pattern for PN II-4720 looks like:

    Beautiful. I don't know if you're planning to sell it, but if it were I, I'd have to keep it for quite awhile before I'd be able to let it go.

    Looking at the Loetz site...I see Silberiris is more a coloring? Is she sure Silberiris is the branch?
     
  18. desperate_fun

    desperate_fun Irregular Member

    Silberiris is a colouring of sorts. It is a finish applied to a base (ground) colour to give it that sheen/iridescence. I am not well enough versed in Loetz to see/know what the ground color is but I do think Deb is spot on with this one.

    So I should title this Silberiris WITH branch maybe?

    The vase is Yellow-Green Glatt
    The Branch is Silberiris

    You have 2 things going on with that vase. :)


    So, if you were going to sell it. I would use the description Deb used along with the PN
