This lovely vase is a rarity.
The vase is Austro Bohemian in origin and would date to around 1900. From our previous experience, research and viewing of other examples we are of the opinion it is from the Loetz workshop.
The vase is marked to the underside with the roman numeral 11 and the decor number 848. There is also a number at the start 280.
The DEK enamel and painted gold relief glass is usually marked with the Roman Numeral and the design number as this one is.
The vase is tall standing 260mm. The top is cut and polished as shown with the orange coloured glass over the top of a yellow glass. The delicate floral design is infilled with a more pinky colour with green and purple iridescence.
There is no damage to this lovely piece. However there are included air bubbles within the glass and one of these is on the rim and extends down inside the glass a small way.
This is not damage and would have occurred when the vase was made. Over time the bubble has filled with dust so the colour of the bubble is a pale grey.
As mentioned the vase is 260mm tall.
