Early Quezal vases were numbered as well as signed Quezal.
This is probably a carry over from when the Quezal founder Martin Bach worked at L.C.Tiffany
glass works. This piece has a gold pulled feather decoration below a series of pulled devices.
Long gold neck with strong iridescence.
Signed : Quezal S 497.
Not being my field, but curious. Quezal is just too close to quetzal, not to have a connection ?
Very nice.
blunderbuss2...yes, Martin Bach who founded Quezal took the idea from the highly iridescent quetzal bird of South America.
