This is a 6.5cm. uranium glass salt with an intaglio horse head by Heinrich Hoffman later Hoffman-Schlevogt, shown in their 1939 catalogue as number 1009/2162/6.5cm. Hoffman worked in Paris in the early 20th. century and sent his designs to Bohemia/Czechoslovakia for manufacture. Being uranium I think this is probably an earlier piece. Many thanks to the opensalts.us website for the information. This is an excellent source of good quality catalogue images.
Beautiful item!
Thanks Nathaniel.J, small is beautiful! I'm having doubts about the age as a lot of the earlier pieces bore the Hoffman butterfly mark.
