An early 20th Century Bohemian gilded and transmalerei enamelled lidded pot, decorated in an almost Islamic style. There is a shallow chip to the underside of the rim of the lid (shown in the detail at right) which could easily be ground out if required, and is more than reflected in the low asking price

A slab-cut crystal Art Deco scent-bottle on a cruciform base, most probably Czechoslovakian. Stylistically, there is no doubt that the design dates from about the 1920s or 1930s, but whether it was actually made then or later, we really can't say for certain
| Our reference: | 8923 | Date: | probably 1930s |
| Manufacturer: | unknown | Origin: | Czechoslovakia |

A superb, vibrantly-coloured pre-War Monart vase. The shape is IJ (which is a fairly rare one), the orange and yellow marbled body shading up to patches of green, brown and blue, with heavy use of aventurine particles. The vase has the normal Monart applied foot with matching coloured spatters

Pretty certainly Czechoslovakian, this vase, cased clear over orange and acid-matted, has been exquisitely hand-enamelled with blackberries, so that it almost resembles cameo glass. We had a smaller version a few years ago with an equally vibrant red body, with identical enamelling, and I haven't seen another since. If anyone thinks they know who decorated this, we'd love to hear from them!
