I had the two yellow vases for a while, ones that I had always loved. So, when I saw the red one on a recent trip I knew it was going to be mine. The dealer made me an offer I couldn't refuse. I had never thought about adding to the yellows, but now I wonder if there are other colors n this decor. I guess time will tell.
Your lovely Tango vases were manufactured by Anton Ruckl.

Thank you so much for the information. I would have assumed Kralik not knowing better. The search continues for the next one....
Glad to help! Here are a few more examples.

Hi Dave. I would agree these are by the same company as each other, and also likely the same as in the link to the post by Jericho. I am not sure that the Ruckl attribution is correct from the first link though. The form does not appear in the Ruckl items in the Tango exhibition, and is also not shown in the known poster of Ruckl shapes. Aside from those two sources, I am not really familiar with any other solid link to support Ruckl attributions.
Based on that, I would not close the door on any other house quite yet. Not saying they are not Ruckl, simply questioning what would support the attribution in the first place.
Thanks for all the loves everyone and the comments. I promise to keep an open mind regarding attribution, especially in light of all the ongoing study into the various makers. Although I still claim not to be a glass collector or definitely not a researcher, I still really appreciate all the work that those that do the research put into the subject. They do not get the credit they deserve.
