    Of course, one is more of a plain jane than the other. I love both for their simplicity in different ways. The clear vase is hallmarked [D][L], London, 1923, the red vase [D][L], London, 1925.
    The red vase has regular humps arising at the base, reminiscent of the humps seen in Art Nouveau glass, but with a vibrant tango colour.
    Any additional information or links, as ever, gratefully received.
    I am linking into Art Deco, but glass produced around this time does straddle the two movements, as Alfredo wrote. Maybe these are more Nouveau than Deco.

      Ian, this Rindskopf 1915 catalog shows two early deco vase shapes - it might be a help in some of your ID's: http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/Rindskopf-1915.8+B6YmFja1BJRD04JnByb2R1Y3RJRD0zNzEmcGlkX3Byb2R1Y3Q9OCZkZXRhaWw9.0.html
