Hi
Everyone.
This is freshly receive today, described by the seller as LOETZ(of course), my little experience on Bohemian make me think this is more Rindskopf production, i could be wrong, please let me know if you have a different opinion, very nice brass mount in Art Deco style, swirl iridescent glass insert, colours range from purple, red, Blue and Green, another great mounted piece in my collection.
The centerpiece mount was 5.75 inch tall, 8.75 wide
The glass bowl was 3.25 inch tall, 5.25 wide.
Thanks for Viewing.
Alan
Amazing!
Wonderful Alan :)
I love the jugendstil style of the mount
Wow, what a good couple of days for vases! Very nice!
No, I agree Alan - Rindskopf, and a very lovely form and mount. They go so well together. I love the simplicity of the glass form.
This is lovely.
@Caperkid, yes amazing, i feel very bless to found that one.
@Mike, i am more than happy that you love that one, and for sure it's wonderful, i have a few now of mounted glass, but this one stand out beside the others.
@kivatinitz, this what attract me in the first place, and believe me i put everything i have for make sure no one will pass in front of me the night i win it.
@rucklczglass, yes lisa, i just realized last night that the stand was pewter plate brass, even better, and when i read the description, i know in my young expertise on glass, this was Rindskopf work, agree, the texture is just beautiful.
@smiata, remembering day for sure, someone make a comment on another post days ago, mentioned how lucky i was, realize today this is truth.

Alan, I'm curious. Are these pieces heavy? The glass looks thin as if it's not very heavy although protected by the holder. Just wondering...
@shareurpassion, really good question, i get in my office where my showcase is an pull it out to get the official weight.
Actually, they are close the same weight, mount with glass 33 oz(935 gram)
Glass alone 14 oz( 405gram) Mount alone 18oz(530 gram)
Many thanks for the comment and the love, really appreciated you taking some of your time to stop by.

@Michelleb007, recently I research this one, specially the decor, and I concluded, this decor was Grenada, tell me if this conclusion is right.
Many thanks for the reply.

Hi Alan, personally, I believe your vase is Pepita. Grenada is very much more orange in comparison; I have a Grenada, and it is an orange red to raspberry color vs. the deep blood red of Pepita. Here is a great example of Grenada: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/151813-rindskopf-grenada-fan-vase
For what it is worth, and I am not sure when or how the terminology changed, although I have my suspicions, according to Truitt I, pages 118: 1-5 & 119: 6-7, this décor was called Grenada by Rindskopf. Truitt shows 7 examples and all are referenced as Grenada.
In addition, Das Böhmische Glas by the Passauer Glasmuseum in Band IV pg 182 IV.317 shows an example of a Rindskopf vase in a bright orange and oil spot décor which they reference as Pepita-Glas (?). They also show the burgundy décor with the same classification and question mark after it on pg 184 IV.323
I know that the Burgundy it is commonly referred to as Pepita now. I have discussed this before, and just find it odd.
As an observation regarding colors and decor names. The color of Grenadine, from a pomegranate is a deep red. The color of the plant a Pepita (roasted seed) comes from is orange (a pumpkin).
Just another glass ID curiosity.
:-)
Craig, I completely agree with you, and I think your last paragraph about the pomegranate and the pumpkin is very telling. I was going with the commonly accepted terminology, but have also wondered about correctness the names myself! :)
I always use the commonly accepted terminology also..... but I just find it is an interesting curiosity.
I find it so interesting that I actually contacted Deb Truitt a few months back and asked her if she recalled the source of the attributions for the Grenada in her book, and she did not recall it. Said it was likely one of the regional museums.
Interesting!
Totally agree, very interesting indeed.
So welzebub, Grenada it is ??
I really appreciated both of you, that you take some time to respond.

Alan
It is only Grenada if you want to go against what is commonly accepted now. It is commonly accepted to be Pepita and ID'd that way regularly.
I did not want to confuse the issue, I just wanted to point out something that is not commonly discussed, and not all that well known.
So no id on the decor ?, grenada or pepita, oh well what's new here.
Thanks anyway
Regards
Alan
Not what I meant. The decor is referred to as Pepita. That is what everyone calls it. Regardless of what the Truitt book says, everyone refers to it as Pepita.

Alan,
Just noticed this all I can say is wow
Hi Alan, this was my favourites too. I love the frame and spiral. Just out of curiosity do you know if any Petita or Grenada decors contain uranium?
Good early Morning Vintagefran, I am not sure, it's something i never tested on Rindskolf Pepita or Grenada, i will definitely check this week-end.
I get back to you on this...;-D
Many thanks for the visit, comment and appreciation of this post.
Hi,
Just a remark: Art Deco did appear shortly before WW I but this is obvious Art Nouveau (Jugendstil).
Thank you, keramikos, hunterqlee, bracken3, larksel, Recordmantime, and long overdue to-- IVAN49, GeodeJem, Vintagefran, Gruff, SpiritBear, for the visit and appreciation.
I take this occasion to upgrade the first 2 picture, this one is untouchable in my collection.
Alan
Radegunder, Thank you for the visit and appreciation.
Alan
WOW, what a fabulous piece!!!
