<p>[QUOTE="KikoBlueEyes, post: 3820989, member: 8363"]This is one of my favorite pieces from the reseller's treasures that I have been purchasing for the last few weeks. I thought the source was Steuben Glass, but when I started to try to learn more about it, this is clearly a Josef Svarc of the Bohemia Glassworks. It involves his signature flowering thistle theme and his mixture of deep cuts and light engraving. It is 8 3/4 inches in diameter. Apparently two of his pieces are part of the British Museums permanent collection. I can find little about him, only a few pieces each is different. In some cases, he is called a designer and in others an engraver. Does anyone have any information?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]317734[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317735[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317736[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317737[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317738[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317739[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317740[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317741[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317742[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]317743[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
