After a four month hiatus, my favourite monthly antiques fair returned today!
I picked up this nice Welz vase so it was worth the four hour round trip...
The vase is an example of the honeycomb spatter in a shape I haven't seen this decor in before. It measures around 20.5 cm tall, 3 cm across the top rim, & 7 cm across the base. Made from three layers of cased glass - clear over multicoloured spatter, with a white interior, it also features clear applied decoration of an acanthus leaf which turns into a small handle.
The four sided shape with an integrally footed base is one I've seen in other colours but not in this honeycomb spatter, & especially not with the applied decoration.
Well done, Marin !!!!
Many thanks, Kevin!
Congratulations on your acquisition of this interesting shape.
Always room fore more welz!!
