A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL
These are only my second example of the Welz decor 'Stripes and Spots', but luckily both the shape and the colour combo are new to my collection. I like the shape but I absolutely love the colours, particularly the lime green/yellow 'lining'. One even has the outline of a long lost label!
I wouldn't even have known these existed but for chancing on www.Kralik-glass.com some years ago. The U.K. has a plethora of 'Victorian' Welz but very little of that from the Art Deco period.....or so it seems to me.
Height 12 cm./4.5 inches
I agree - we seem to do the Victorian a lot better than the later stuff. I don't know whether our home glass industry was just doing good things or economic factors played a part - I have often wondered whether there is actually quite a lot of this stuff in peoples' "murano" collections.
Ian, I meant that, to me, Welz seemed to to have shipped any amount of their 'Victorian' style production to us in the U.K. but hardly any of the 'Stripes and Spots' type of production.
I agree on misattribution......I've bought very affordable Welz because it was advertised as Murano:-)
Good Glass Hunting in 2015
I love these!! Great colors for the décor, and a classic Welz shape. What a great way to end your year!!
Indeed, Welzebub, little bursts of colour on a strong shape......my latest favourites. Successful Researching in 2015
VERY VERY BEAUTIFUL !!! Happy New Year!!
Agree with others-- BEAUTIFUL Welz!
Wish you all of the best for 2015, sklo42!

These are stunning!!

Thanks yesterdaysglass, your comment is much appreciated.
Thanks PatSea.....there's certainly a lot going on in a tiny vase! :-)
Love them, Stripes and Spots is one of my favorite Welz decors...had my eye on them too...but too costly to ship to the states. Glad you got them and they stayed local!
Thanks jagsrock, they're a real treat for me as Deco period Welz isn't commonplace here.
Thanks for the loves, Mac63, surfdub, Vintagefran, welzebub and GlueChip for the loves.
Thank you, aura, ho2cultcha and Deano for the loves.
Loved it again ---- Mmmmmmm, Watermelon Looking !!
