As I was writing my title, I realised I was also describing other ways to identify these color combinations, such as amberina, peach blow, grenada, etc.
The groupings are a mix of pottery pieces and glass pieces, all produced in a few countries who had an export decorative trade with UK and USA.
First image is a Mosa Masstricht ball pottery vase, from the Netherlands, 7 inches high and very vibrant color red, with molded glazed upper rim and shoulder in yellow and orange, teamed with two Japanese pottery pieces, with added hand painted floral decorations.
Second image is the Mosa vase, with colored glass from Czechoslovakia.
Third image is more colored glass pieces from Czechoslovakia.
Fourth image, is a more detailed version where you can see the blend of glass colors from the base of the pieces.
I'm happy to see the ceramics here Lisa, we rarely see them like this here on CW.
I particularly am enamoured by the drip glaze.
It's nice to see the design flow-on ceramics:glass. Very period.
Thanks Karen, I was thinking about you with the Japanese pieces, you are giving me the opportunity to share the fact that Japan did also try to stay on trend with some of their ceramics.
Kinkozan for instance, closed their doors after a history of production that spanned over a century, a family business as was the tradition then. Their last production of ceramics was with a European deco flair. If the pieces were not signed, they would be hard to identify.

That ball vase is growing on me, the colors and shape are arresting, yet still attractive. Appreciate the gesture and the love. :-)
