This was a bit of a punt - a half-educated guess. I thought it looked pretty special and wasn't disappointed on cleaning it up.
Although I haven't had a Kralik banded before, that's what I think it is, with gilded enamel "jewels" and a painted historismus scene of the German spa town Bad Tabarz.
Of course, I can't leave out the possibility that it is actually German.
It is 16.8cm high.
I watched this too Ian - thought it was fabulous, but had my head turned by something else, unfortunately ; ( - I love the enameling on it, specially the gold dots on the body and rim and that fabulous little painted scene - I would say definitely Kralik. I'm just a little envious of this one! Well done - I love it!
Thank you, Phil. I am sorry you got distracted! ;-)
I look at your postings with envy very often - more often than I admit!
I'd say this would be the envy of many Kralik collectors and most souvenir collectors.
very pretty
Thanks, for both comments.
