There is nothing like this shape in the 3-handles shapes. The handles are inverted to the bottom and serve as an extended base. This series shows the difference in workmanship the best: sometimes the handles are sharp and geometric and sometimes soft and organic looking. This is why I believe Some shapes are made by Kralik; different color handles, different signature, similar shapes/new shapes.
The design looks modern, these were made in the 1920's so the design is clearly ahead of its time. There is also a distinction with the Florette design: they appear only on black style handles. Notice that vases in orange (tangerine) and green appear with cobalt blue handles as well as the black; If a vase has cobalt handles other than those shades it is extremely rare. Any picture are welcome...
