Just fabulous, Marty! The ones I've seen have more of a darker red. This one is much nicer !!

Thanks Cobbas ,
I had had one or two of these decades ago before I knew what they were and at least one this colour and a redder one .
Thanks to the Harrach book and good mates like you I now know and want to acquire more post WW11 Bohemian Art Glass !!!

Like a marbles´s effect, stunning vase!
Everything about this is interesting.
The colour, the way the lines droop into the base, the squashed shape...great piece!
Your first post in 3 months and it's a beauty. Thank you so much for sharing, really appreciate seeing it and you sharing...thanks Marty ...
Very very nice oz I don't mind this at all I love the Tangerine colour or that's what it looks like to me. I hope all is well for you & yours. These storms have been for a lot of people down South. Four to many lives lost not good. Have a safe day mate
