    I bought the two jars first because I recognised the shape of the larger jar. I have that shape in another Welz décor, pink with green splashes, and it's posted here. These are vivid blue and green with aventurine on a white base. I thought I was buying a spatter décor in a colour combination I'd not seen before.

    On closer inspection I found vertical lines on both jars and lines on the lids radiating out from the finial. There are no ribs behind the lines. I think the aim was to have the spots on the lines. That has been achieved intermittently but not over the whole piece in either case. You find similar difficulties in achieving uniformity with honeycomb décors. Nevertheless interesting pieces to own.....

    The vase has the same colours and a splotchy look on the base but nothing resembling the lines with spots seen on the jars.

      scott, thank you, as ever.

      welzebub, It would be good to find an example with the décor perfectly executed.
    10. sklo42 sklo42, 5 years ago
      Ivonne, I like them too, but then I like green!
    11. sklo42 sklo42, 5 years ago
      They do need a wash, Phil, shame on me :) When the camera picked up the speckles on the inside shot I thought, lot of speckles in the glass, and dumped them back on a window sill! Then I read your comment............
    12. sklo42 sklo42, 5 years ago
      Yes, Karen, and always good to find a new décor.
    13. sklo42 sklo42, 5 years ago
      Glad you like them too, Michelle.

      Hi Peggy, i love these! It's surprising how a few bubbles can really change the look of the decor.
    16. sklo42 sklo42, 5 years ago
      Hi Fran, and it would have been amazing if they could have succeeded in covering all of the piece in lines of bubbles.
    17. jericho jericho, 5 years ago
      I love this bubble technique
    18. sklo42 sklo42, 5 years ago
      I admit I don't understand the technique but I like the effect here. I also like the enormous variety of effects that can be found in their work.
