A set of six Venetian wine-glasses, the wrythen bowls supported by green leaves, on spiral-twist inverted baluster stems, with overall gold-leaf. From the general style, we think they date from about the 1930s
Sadly, the tip of one of the leaves on one of the glasses is missing (shown in the detail second from right, and again, outlined in red, in the detail at right), but this is more than reflected in the extremely low asking price. A single, modern Murano wine-glass of this quality could cost as much as the asking price for this entire set
| Our reference: | 8807 | Date: | c 1930s |
| Manufacturer: | unknown | Origin: | Italy |
| Dimensions: | height 16 cm, weight 740 gm (the set) | ||
| Condition: | see description | ||

A heavily-cased ruby-red vase of square section, hand-gilded and -enamelled, with applied coloured 'jewels'. From the glassworks of Josef Riedel in Polaun, Bohemia, circa 1900s
The vase is in generally good condition, with just one 'jewel' missing (arrowed in yellow at right) out of a total of twenty-four, which is pretty good for its age!

A Czechoslovakian Tango vase in a relatively less common cased turquoise colour, with the usual applied black rim. Tango pieces were very much a product of the 'Jazz Age' of the 1920s and 30s, and were made in all shapes, colours and sizes by various different glassworks, including Loetz, Wilhelm Kralik, Franz Welz, Anton Rückl and others. From the shape, we think this one is probably from the Kralik works
| Our reference: | 8800 | Date: | c 1920s |
| Manufacturer: | probably Kralik |
Origin: | Czech |
| Dimensions: | height 24 cm, weight 490 gm | ||
| Condition: | very good | ||
