UPDATE I have been informed that a capital letter followed by two or three digits was used by Harrach to identify their shapes.
Image two shows the the initial layer paint, which I've seen on another Harrach piece. Also note the hand pulled and applied handles.
Image one shows the main enamelling of a bird and foliage. The whole of this is embellished by gilded highlights.
Image three shows the enamelling extending around the side of the vase.
Image four shows the base and that the actual glass is opaline.

This is so very beautiful and agree!.. I too think Harrach..
Thank you, Penny, and it seems we are right. I've just learned that a capital letter and two or three digits is a Harrach shape identifier.

Thank you, Phil. When I was trying to nail this one down I noticed that you yourself have some nice Harrach posted here.
Thank you, and... you're lucky I didn't see it first ; )
Beautiful example, Peggy! I love this design, and of course, the bird! :)
Thank you, Michelle, I have to admit I'm very pleased with it :)
