Readers here may remember Dave's post of Andy's vase by Glasfabrik Schliersee in the same shape with a metal mount in the Aspasia decor (dark red over yellow). This one is a little more plain, but I love it all the same. Any time a documented Schliersee piece comes up, it should be snapped up, as they are generally fairly rare, and the quality is on a par with Loetz, Kralik, or any of the other great glass houses. The iridescence is nice, the color is deep, and the slightly twisted vertical optic ribs add interest.
Really wonderful. I love the shape.
Being that there's not that many Schliersee pieces documented in Christine's book, you have to wonder what else they made eh?
There are a few pieces out there I suspect are Schliersee, but no drawing, so I am left to wonder. :)
Oh yes, that would be this one: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/144846-schliersee-pewter-mounted-aspasia-deco
