Very beautiful Frank :)
Thanks SEAN.
Your very welcome Frank :)
It's beautiful!...:-)
very attractive piece! may I ask if it is signed? and does it react to UV light?
MacArt : 1. There are faint numbers on the bottom but too difficult to see.
2. I don't have a UV light.
Thank You for reply! if You have a picture of the bottom I think nobody would mind if You shared it.
Mac : I added photo of the bottom. But as I said it's difficult to see the mark.
You are right, I can not read anything too... the remaining part is in gold or am I imagining? I just wanted to get a little closer to resolve a mystery of mine Bohemian Victorian satin piece... ( http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/116304-loetz-harrach-3-i-440 ) at first I was overexited in assumption that it is Loetz, but later I labled it unconclusive. here ( http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/6998828 ) is a very curious pair with blooming sacura and birds which I believe is made by the same maker as mine.
Its gorgeous.
Truly Gorgeous.
