    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.
    philmac51 has a Harrach vase posted here which has similarly 'artisanal' handles!

      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.
