Art Nouveau Glass : A superior large iridescent 'Creta mit Behaengen' Loetz Vase - Circa 1900
A superior large Art Nouveau iridescent and applied shaped glass Vase, almost certainly by Loetz having tadpole type trailing over the iridescence. The finest piece of Art Nouveau glass we have seen in a long time. Loetz's Creta mit Behaengen series
Unsigned but certainly by Loetz (please see links below - thank you for your resources www.loetz.com)
Circa Early 20th Century
Good Antique Condition - slight rim fault from time of manufacture and a small roughness on one ridge (see image) which is not obviously visible (please also see note under) and both mentioned for
accuracy, neither distracts in any way
Note: The trailing has been applied over a textured body therefore the molten glass would have run down the low points this making it very difficult to see if there is any trail loss in places. I have done my best to highlight any potential areas but please ask questions if in doubt and please view images carefully (if you require any further images we can send them to you happily). This is a beautiful Vase (similar Vases having high ticket prices in excess of $5,000). This Vase is fresh to the market. Viewing is welcome NW6/London and pick up would be great (or we may be able to deliver).
Buyer will be completely delighted with this wonderful Loetz Vase
9.5 inches (24cm) height X 6 inches (15cm) dia approx
