I did manage to acquire a post - birthday present at the antiques fair I attended yesterday - this pair of Kralik thorn vases. The good glass vibes are flowing for me at the moment!
Both vases measure around 20 cm tall, 2.5 cm across the cut top rims, & around 8.5 cm across the applied footed bases. Both are made from clear glass with a satin finish, & have rustic thorn pull out decoration all over. One has a pink flower, a clear leaf, & clear base, the other, a purple flower, green leaf, & green base. There is a slight uranium content in the green. They do have a few small losses here & there. Nice companions for my Kralik double tube thorn vase!
More gorgeous Kralik flowers and of a type I've not seen before. Perhaps you should celebrate your birthday every month :)
Thanks so much, sklo42! Yes, that sounds like an excellent idea...& the finds roll on, because today I got a lovely satin glass vase at the flea market today - I think it might be Harrach - will post it soon...
They're wonderful! I love the way the flowers are formed and their matte finish.
Many thanks, Vintagefran!
Beautiful!!

Happy belated birthday, IronLace! And what a beautiful pair of vases to celebrate it with. I love the different colors in this pair, and the satin finish really makes them extra beautiful. Just lovely! :)
Nice they are different from any of mine .. Love dem kralik Flowers
Thanks so much, Scott, Michelle, & Marty. It's nice to know these are rarer variations on the wide variety of Kralik flowers - they must have made so many styles. I'm really glad I went to that fair!
