    This type of glass was intended to look like semi precious stones. Versions were made by both Harrach and Loetz. I learned this from posting it in a Facebook group. The two knowledgeable people who commented agreed the glass was made by both companies. However one favoured Harrach and one favoured Loetz in this case.
    I bought it because it looked good and I'd never seen the décor previously. So lucky find.

      Pretty and interesting vase.These matte grinded rings are intriguing.I've never seen such decoration on marmoriertes glass.

      I hadn't even noticed those three ground bands, Iwona. They are meticulously placed and would have needed dedicated machinery. I wonder whether they are the usual preparation for gilding. It would make sense of the bulge in the long neck. There has to be a reason for them, but I can only guess!

      I think you're right ,Peggy.Those rings aren't necessary as a decoration unless they're a base for gilding.
