    It is unmarked, despite being bought from the US. Otherwise it is right.
    Got one in orange and now this.
    Stands 21cm high.

      The clear portion of the flower is great against the blue vase-- really dramatic colors. Love it!

      Thanks for the comments: certainly of a type. I keep an open mind over the attribution as we have learnt that all floriforms are Kralik, which I am happy to accept, but we don't know!

      Known factory literature from Aarhus, a company in Denmark, showing work like this that they produced (applied flowers) using Bohemian gaffers, would certainly throw more than a substantial shadow of doubt on Kralik being the only maker.

      Although we do not know how many companies made this type of product, we certainly know of at least 2, and one was not even Bohemian. Granted, they used Bohemian workers that relocated in Denmark....

      I think that the style was popular, and the vast number of surving examples we see in a range of designs, more than supports at least the notion of multiple houses making these pieces.

      That being said, how do we tell them apart? That is a completely different question, and one I certainly do not have an answer to.

      Thanks for the comments. Craig, probably more of our posts and attributions should come with this sort of caveat.
