I purchased this vase a few years ago quite reasonably at a National Antique fair because I loved the shape and understated iridescence. I thought it might have been by Kralik as there is no pontil but having seen a number of Loetz cisele pieces listed here and on eBay I wondered whether it might actually be Loetz. I hope someone on this someone on this fantastic forum may have come across a similar piece before.
The vase measures 7.5" tall and weighs approx. 400 gms.
Thanks.
isn't this Loetz Diana?
It is Loetz Cisele.
Look 6 rows down on this Loetz page and you will see my Loetz vase in the same shape with a DEK I/ 439 decor.
Its beautiful.
Just for ease of movement:

Thanks everyone for your help and loves. Especially so LoetzBuddies as I can now see that this shape exists in Loetz Decors. My guess is that my vase could be described as Loetz ozone Cisele, do you agree?
Thanks again.
Hello Bryn...WHAT!!!! a fabulous shape..it looks super in this decor and yes! I agree the... "understated iridescence"... you have a good eye!..I just love it!.....:-)
Thanks for your kind words Inky. Much appreciated.
Many thanks to LoetzBuddies for his Sherlock Holmes like deduction.
I must apologise as I could have swore that I had left this message many many months ago. Doh!
