Bought this as a Pearled Cranberry Glass Vase - I am hoping it is a Rindskopf! If so, when would it date from? It is 8" high with a brass
collar, would this have had a frog?
Whatever it is I think it is a lovely thing, I love its pink iridescence and the detail on the brass collar!:) Thank you for stopping by!
stunning stunning!!!!!
My goodness Sean!!!! That was unbelievably quick!!!!:) Thank you!!!:)
Gorgeous!!! I am going to post one like in a couple of days....BEAUTIFUL!!!
You too Moon!! Both on the ball here! Thank you!
Fabulous pinched vase!!!
I don't think this would have had a frog...its a metal rim for the vase...love it!
Your beautiful vase is like mine...

So Moon, does this make mine a Kralik Stolzle? Not Rindskopf?
I wish I could tell you for sure....I am just learning myself. I know for sure that mine is a Stolzle..because of the shape and metal rim...2 more are coming like mine...but I am no expert. I love the look and yours is gorgeous! Someone will know on CW!! XO
I really like this vase, but I do not know the maker. My first guess would not be Rindskopf, but it could be for all I know. The shape is very Loetz, but this is probably styled after Loetz by some other Bohemian factory c1900. The color is great!
dasullywon, I think so too...really cool colour!!! I was torn with the maker. But I am still learning myself!
Great looking piece. My understanding is that these pieces were formerly known as Stölzle but are now attributed to Kralik. Here is a link to a posting I did a while back: http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/76414-sellers-remorse. Regardless its a beauty.

Mac63, so what is the difference between this vase and mine?

And I think mine should be a Loetz? Please let me know....I am curious?
Trust me I am not an expert on the Kralik/Stölzle issue. It was Alfredo who brought it to our attention awhile back. I am pretty sure your piece falls into the same category. I'm not sure what you mean when you say " And I think mine should be a Loetz?"
Mac63, I meant to say that I really think it should be a Loetz..but it does not have a pontil....so I was told its Kralik. :)
Here a picture of the same one like yours:

I am pretty sure your piece is not Loetz.
I think most would agree that at one time your piece would have been ID'd as Stölzle but now it seems that this type of glass is attributed to Kralik. I have nothing to back up that attribution other than people who are smarter than me have told me so.
And as for "but it does not have a pontil..." Not all Loetz pieces have polished pontils - again the smart people told me that...:)
and also check out this website, moonstonelover incase you haven't seen this one yet I think it might be also of interest for you: http://www.glas-musterbuch.de/Rindskopf-1915.8.0.html
Sorry Justanovice - we seemed to hijacked your thread.
your very welcome justanovice:)
Thank you Mac for the links - very interesting!:) Thank you to everyone who has left a Love or Comment, very much appreciated!!
Thank you also claudia1971 for the link!
That photo on the loetz.com website is the main reason that these type vases were all attributed to Stölzle. Since that time we have come to the conclusion that they are actually Kralik. That one in the photo from the book may indeed have been by Stölzle, but the others are not. The fact that the stamped metal was made by the same company and in the same shape doesn't necessarily mean the glass is by the same company. And we know that Kralik filled orders for other companies. If they were given a photo or pattern to follow, including a metal rim to fit, they would create the pieces needed.
Thank you JayHow and Thank you too dlfd911 for the added information, very much appreciate any time given for a comment and feedback! :) Any ideas on age?
The style is undoubtedly Art Nouveau, so I would place it between 1898-1902.
Wow! That is lovely! Great to see it has survived with just some minor dings to the collar! Many thanks for your reply, I should have considered that, can't believe it did not occur to me!!! Doh!!!:)
