This Bolek decor is found in several museum collections, Passau, PASK, etc., but this the first one of these I have seen in neurot (new red). The scalloped rim is a little unusual, but it's not the only Bolek piece I have seen with this treatment; see the last photo for comparison to a similarly treated piece that sold at auction overseas in 2014. 6.5" (16cm) tall.
Do these Bolek cameo pieces bear any type of signature?
What does the base look like?
The colour 'neurot' does not appear red to me, except in the different example in the last photo. Is your example the same colour as that?
I am really attracted to these cameo pieces with fire-polished decoration on the textured background. (You assisted me greatly at the start of my journey about a somewhat similar - but not geometric - Loetz cameo piece many years back. https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/187328-loetz-cameo-vase?in=441-activity
I am still grateful.)
Congratulations !!! It is phenomenal !!!!
A very rare and beautiful example of this designer's work and collaboration with Loetz. Congratulations
