Stunning, Beautiful Loetz Iridescent Glass Vase In The Form Of A Conche Shell For Sale

STUNNING, BEAUTIFUL LOETZ IRIDESCENT GLASS VASE

in the form of a CONCHE SHELL

THIS IS A STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL LOETZ TWO COLOUR IRIDESCENT ART NOUVEAU GLASS VASE IN THE FORM OF A CONCHE SHELL WHICH DATES, I WOULD GUESS, FROM THE END OF THE BEGINNING OF THE 20th. CENTURY AND WAS MADE AT THE LOETZ FACTORY BOHEMIA. IN AN QUITE AN UNUSUAL SHELL SHAPE IT IS DEPICTED WITH DEEPLY ENGRAVED SEGMENTS, WITH BODY IN A RUBY COLOUR WITH STUNNING SILVER OVERLAY WITH A REALLY LOVELY BLUE/MAUVE IRIDESCENCE OVER THE SILVER - REALLY IS A STUNNING EFFECT, AND STANDS OVER A LOW NATURALISTIC FOOT PLINTH. THE BASE HAS A POLISHED PONTIL.

IT MEASURES 6" (15cm) L x 4" (10cm) H x 3" (7.5cm) W APPROX; AND IS IN GOOD CONDITION, HOWEVER THERE IS A PROBLEM TO THE UNDERSIDE OF THE BASE AS IT HAS A CRACK (ACROSS) WHICH I THINK WAS PROBABLY DONE WHEN THE BASE PLINTH WAS APPLIED IN THE FACTORY. IN REALITY IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AS IT'S BELOW AND DOESN'T TRAVEL TO THE OUTER SURFACE BUT IS THERE (PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE PHOTOGRAPH WAS LIT SO IT CAN BE SEEN CLEARLY BUT IN REALITY IT IS NOT AS BAD AS IT LOOKS AND ONLY SEEN WHEN THE VASE IS INVERTED) - SEE PHOTOGRAPHS AND DETAILS.

THIS IS A SUPERB PIECE OF PERIOD ART NOUVEAU IRIDESCENT GLASS IN QUITE AN EXOTIC AND UNUSUAL FORM FROM THE BEST PRODUCER WHICH IS IN REALLY GREAT CONDITION THAT WITH A LOW START PRICE SHOULD GENERATE A GOOD DEAL OF INTEREST FROM ALL COLLECTORS.

* ONCE MORE I HAVE TO APOLOGISE FOR MY PHOTOGRAPHS AS THEY REALLY DON'T DO JUSTICE TO THE BEAUTIFUL LUSTRE AT ALL - IT'S MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN REALITY.
