After a long gap I've recently been able to add more Welz thorn vases to my collection. This one has the classic Welz base of five thorny 'feet'. Also it is in the Welz décor of pink with green aventurine and has been made extra long so that it can be curled back upon itself. The last is a feature Welz did in several ways.
This one, like the others, is hexagonal, but differently it has been twisted and has no thorns along the body of the vase.....only on the feet!
Height 20 cm./8 inches
Solidly attributed Welz decor on a GREAT Shape!

You are so right. scott! Thank you :)
I always liked yours, antiquerose.
The link below shows a different Welz shape in the same décor as your thorn vase.....Harlequin Honeycomb. I'd never realised that before.

Oooh! I love this one! I have never seen a thorn in these colors before - so pretty! :)
Thank you, Michelle :) I was pleased with this one, but it does need better photos...... today was grey!
Better photos added.
Gorgeous colours Peggy.
Thank you, Karen :)
Thank you for the loves everyone.
I love the spiral colors Peggy... they remind
me of a candy cane :-) Also, that tail is so unique and interesting... I love it!
Thanks, Rick. The patterned ones are my favourites......
