hi, we have had these lovely items in a display cabinet for years and were not aware what they were.
By chance I saw a vase very similar in google images and it led me to this site.
I thought I would share.
I think I have the details in the description correct, if not I am happy to be corrected.
They belonged to my wife's grandparents I think they were a wedding gift.
When they sadly passed my wife asked her parents for them as she always admired them.
regards adam
What a FABULOUS THREESOME !!!!!
I was just wondering if you could add the dimensions, please ???
hi yes the dimensions are
the bowl is approximately 24.5cm across and 12cm high
the 2 vases are 16cm high and 16cm across at the widest part (the paddle handles)
I have not seen a bowl the same as this and the vases usually have the paddle handles above or below the level of the vase from what i have discovered looking 'on-line', I hope they are original and not copies!!!!!
There'll be some Loetz experts online soon I'm sure. The photos make them seem smaller so thanks for adding the dimensions.
9.6" across & 4.7" high
6.3" x 6.3"
Wow!!!...fabulous, love the colour....I would re-catorgarise them into art glass and Loetz...that way you will be certain of one of the Loetz experts seeing them...they are wonderful....:-)
thanks i have re catorgorised, glad people like them, i now wish i had cleaned them for their photo shoot, as they are rather dusty. They are usually tucked away in a display cabinet away from our boisterous sphinx cat and our teenager who plays football throughout the house. Wise move it seems!
Oh! No!!!.. Just the cat would worry me...but a football...aghhhhhhh!!...:-)
100% Loetz but I not at all certain its a Kirschner design. LMHO there is some bad information on the internet about that attribution.
wow that's some group! amazing
Alan, I also have 2 paddle handle vases!! Love mine :)
