Here is a Rindskopf vase in their very textured snakeskin decor. Kralik also made a snakeskin-like decor, but it is much smoother in texture than the Rindskopf version. This vase is 7" tall and has a nice pinkish toned iridescence to it; it dates to about 1905. The rim is sterling silver, and has English hallmarks; these type of rims were often applied to imported Bohemian glass by English silversmiths prior to their sale in Britain.
What a wonderful texture it has, Michelle. A new décor for me too!

Thanks, sklo! This is actually a bit of a variation of their snakeskin decor; it has 'bumps' going vertically up the vase (some people call it 'zipper'.) I have another vase that is a more traditional snakeskin, here: https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/137895-rindskopf-iridescent-snakeskin-column
Thanks so much, Malkey! :)
