Signed Loetz with Silver Overlay

This is not Silberiris, Norma, or Delphi. It is a decor resembling Heliotrop in its structure. It looks as if applied with a brush. The ground glass is closest to Russian green and the vase looks blue when not illuminated. The decors listed for this shape (size 41/2") are all known different decors, except Terresta, which has not been identified yet. Of course, this does not automatically mean that this is Terresta. Apart from the silver overlay, which is nicely designed and proportioned to the decor and size of the vase, there is a proper signature on the pontil, which is a further indication that this is a better decor.
