Finally I felt this post was necessary, as it shows the large inventory Kralik was able to produce, and the variety they designed for export purposes. Some are easily recognizable as pre WWI, others we are not so familiar with.
The idea is that as time passed, and they reached the interwar period, they had the same capacity and resources to produce some similar and some different influenced trendy glass goods of all kinds.
I keep stressing the point that Kralik had seven or more glassworks in Eleonorain, and it's area, not one. That alone allows you to expect a large and varied inventory.
The publications used with permission from Tom Felt yesterday, (yes, he is fine), and D. Truitt. as seen in image 1.
The interesting content of these pages are the early use of textured glass, the wide range of glass applied floral pieces, and the concrete documentation of some pieces in more than one illustrated page of the different sources. Part 1 of 2, next post will complete the purpose of identifications.
