Kralik - Hand molded pieces

Kralik executed some fantastic pieces that are rarely seen. They show excellent taste and technique. The reason I am drawn to these pieces is because they are fire polished and hand-worked but most of all they contain cased decor. This means rather than a surface decor (like Loetz and many other earlier companies) each piece is internally decorated first then hand worked with repeated trips to the furnace.
