    I adore this bowl, it's beautifully painted with enamel-colour in different shades of blue, and dark red.
    It is marked "V.Wieselthier" and "WW."
    As I understand, the shape may have been designed by Josef Hoffmann, and the decor was made by Vally Wieselthier.

    Here is a picture on the MAK Museum homepage:

    And here, on the Corning Museum of Glass:
    http://www.cmog.org/artwork/vase-reclining-female-figures

    On the MAK homepage, it's dated around 1918-1919 and on the Corning Museum homepage around 1920-29.
    Im really curious to find out as much as possible about it, for example how many of this design were produced?
    I read somewhere that Vally Wieselthier made all in all 34 different designs for glass.

      Actually I bought this one on the internet, and I was so very concerned about the shipping - luckily the seller had packed it with great care!
      The seller had read the WW signature upside down... so they thought it was MM...

      Radegrunder - thank you so much for the love!! And thanks again SEAN... :)
