Great piece of Bohemian - Czechoslovakia art glass from Loetz. Their Rusticana line was inspired by the various Art Nouveau "tree bark" motifs at the turn of the century. Many of the pieces were designed by Christopher Dresser in the late 1890's. This squatty bowl with ruffled rim is in perfect condition. Bowl measures almost 6 1/2 inches in diameter at it's widest part, and is about 4 1/2 inches tall. Gorgeous reflections of purple, pink, gold and more make this a joy to own and display.
 

Nice piece of orange cased glass marked on the bottom with the "Made in Czechoslovakia " in a circle mark. This item is documented on page 12 of the " Made in Czechechoslovakia" reference guide by Ruth Forsythe, (1982 printing) and dates between 1918 and 1938. The vase is 9 1/2" tall. The decoration was originally silver and black, although a good amount of the silver has been worn. a graceful piece standing 1/2" tall.
 

One could not find a more perfect example of the glass blower's art then this perfectly symmetrical bottle and stopper. At first glance it appears to be a piece of clambroth, but it is not. The glass has many miniscule white flecks throughout. It has a double ground and polished pontil and the base has the remnants of a number painted on in gold. Originally there was gold trim at the base and also on all of the rims but much of it has worn off with time. It is smooth as silk and a joy to handle. We estimate it to be from the late 1800's. It's not a real showy piece, but is attractive in it's simplicity.
 

Here is a lovely pair of 14” shelf supports in a not-quite cobalt blue. They are hand blown and formed with ground and polished pontils and each is acid marked “CZECHOSLOVAKIA”. When new, they had, pardon the expression, a silver lining, some of which is now gone, but no matter, they are still impressive in their height and style. Because they are hand made, there are variations in the glass. The base is 4 1/4 “ at the widest point and has 6 pointed feet. There are no chips, cracks or other damage other than the missing silver as mentioned above. They could be used as vases for dried florals or regular vases if the remaining lining was removed. The mark dates these to the 1930’s, possibly earlier. . .
