Loetz Creta Papillon Collection. Circa 1898-1900. All documented PNs

Yes, they are common creta and papillon, but if you're going to appreciate an art form like Loetz glass you must appreciate ALL varieties, not just the rare and valuable ones.

Here are three examples of Loetz Creta Papillon pieces from my collection.
