LOETZ AND RARE 8002 This pair of Loetz marbled vases were done in the C1880’s and this pair is marvelous in size and execution of the technique. I have been to the Bohemian glass museum where they have over 30,000 pieces of glass on display and I can assure you that they did not have an example of this technique on display that matched the size and beauty of this pair. The marbling layer of red and white is sandwiched between the inner opaque layer and outer clear glass layer and required great skill to achieve the effect and consistency in layers to have the glass be stable. Loetz and great marbling to these 20" high urn vases. 8" diameter. Perfect and original condition. Price upon request. Visit http://akeslingerantiques.com for more great items.

LOETZ VASE RARE 7048 LOETZ DECORATED IRIDESCENT VASE - 47I love a beautiful piece of glass and attribute this unsigned piece to Loetz. The style is called "rubin matt Iris" from c.1900. One can recognize the quality and age of most any piece. This decorated deep blue iridescent piece has gold outlined floral areas of no iridescence surrounded by this beautiful iridescent background. Base glass is red (this is determined by holding the vase to the light and looking inside the vase). Numbered base without pontil. Great oriental influenced shape. 6 5/8" high. 6 3/4" wide. 3 1/16"base. Loetz Bohemian glass at its best. Visit http://akeslingerantiques.com to see other great art glass pieces and makers. $1500

Bohemian vase with wonderful landscape decor. This is the softest piece of glass I've ever touched. Loetz perhaps. I don't know the decorating technique, it appears to be similiar to Steuben's glass of silk with the topaz color the same technique as the semi transparent color. This is rare and beautiful. Item Number: 517 Price: $2500.00 Another glass lover tells me that this is by J. E. Schneckendorf born 1865 in Kronstadt Rumania and studied glass making in Munich. He apparently won many awards at various exhibitions both in Europe and U.S.

a Keslinger IRIDESCENT MOLD BLOWN VASE 1170.The iridescent oil spot style of decoration was produced so nicely by the Loetz and other Bohemian glass companies and when combined with this mold blown melon shape it creates a very naturalistic look to a vase. 4 3/8”H, 4.25”D base, 4”D rim. 20.75” around center of melon shape. $375  

a Keslinger HAND PAINTED & CASED VASE 1175.Many try to attribute these cased and enamel decorated vases to Kimble successor to Durand, as they are signed PK as shown. I do not, although I do not know who made them. I suspect that they were produced in England or Bohemia 1920-40. This pair of vases have a pink casing over opaque white glass with gray enameled flowers accented with what I consider a typical Bohemian orangish gilt color. The blown out ring bands are similar to English early decanters in appearance. Vase 9.25”H, 2 3/8”D base, 2 5/8”D rim. The broken pontil with original ground rim is also typical of Bohemian glass. 2 @ $250. Each
