    I like to collect different shapes of a particular decor. I particularly liked the "Arcadia" decor with its flower painting. The production of this glass was suspected for a long time in Bavaria and was not known as Lötz. So sometimes there was an opportunity to make a good purchase.
    The "Arcadia" décor was first executed around 1896/97 and was recorded from the PN I 2228 pattern onwards. It must be noted, however, that only a few patterns from this period were published. In my opinion, the previous descriptions of this decor are not entirely correct. With my pieces I noticed that the pale green glass was underlaid from above with a light opal and not, as otherwise described, is only colorless with a slight green tint. Such products were often painted with gold paint and enamel in many different decors. See Loetz.com: https://www.loetz.com/decors-a-z/arcadia
    Here you can see:
    PN I 8064, decor I / 5 (1900 PN II 186); PN I 8021, decor I / 3;
    PN I 8068, decor I / 3; PN I 8052 deco unknown; PN I 8028, decor I / I
    On the second photo a comparison of two vases (both in the same shape, 1899, PN I 8021/1900, PN II 151) one in Arcadia and one ruby ??matt Iris, decor IV.714.

    Loetz:  Dekor "Arcadia" mit Blumen-Malerei.
    Ich mag es, verschiedene Formen eines bestimmten Dekors zu sammeln. Besonders gefiel mir das Dekor "Arcadia" mit seiner Blumen-Malerei. Die Herstellung dieses Glases wurde lange Zeit in Bayern vermutet und war nicht als Lötz bekannt. Deshalb gab es manchmal die Möglichkeit, einen guten Kauf zu tätigen.
    Der Dekor "Arcadia" wurde circa 1896/97 zum erstenmal ausgeführt und ab dem Schnittmuster PN I 2228 verzeichnet. Dabei muss jedoch beachtet werden, daß nur wenige Schnittmuster aus dieser Zeit veröffentlicht wurden. Meines Erachtens sind die bisherigen Beschreibungen dieses Dekors nicht ganz korrekt. Bei meinen Stücken habe ich festgestellt, daß das blassgrüne Glas von oben mit hellem Opal verlaufend unterfangen wurde und nicht wie sonst beschrieben nur farblos mit leichter Grüntönung ist. Solche Erzeugnisse wurden oft mit Goldfarbe und Emaille in vielen verschiedenen Dekoren bemalt. Siehe hierzu bei Loetz.com: https://www.loetz.com/decors-a-z/arcadia
    Hier zu sehen sind:
    PN I 8064, Dekor I/5 (1900 PN II 186); PN I 8021, Dekor I/3;
    PN I 8068, Dekor I/3; PN I 8052 Dekor unbekannt; PN I 8028, Dekor I/I
    Auf dem zweiten Foto noch ein Vergleich von zwei Vasen ( beide in der gleichen Form, 1899, PN I 8021/1900, PN II 151) eine in Arcadia und eine Rubin matt Iris, Dekor IV. 714.

      I just love Arcadia; the enameled flowers against it are perfect.

      I love the Arcadia decor as well. I agree, it is also fun collecting various shapes produced in the same decor. Nice collection! Thanks for sharing.
