Ivonne posted pics of her Kraliks about 8 months back, and seeing those reminded me that I have these. I would call the amethyst decor "tree trunk" rather than drapery.
So if I find a Lemon colored one I'll win the jackpot, yes?
Very nice. I like the colours here - no in your face crassness from Kralik - all class and beautiful.
The larger piece is in a décor referred to as Honeycomb panel. Nice examples.
@Welz - how do they get "honeycomb"? I sorta kinda can see it, but it looks more like a tree trunk to me.
Honeycomb is a reference to the panels of pattern on the surface of the piece. Honeycomb is actually more geometrically consistent, but that was the closest reasonable reference I came up with at the time. It is not a factory name, as most are not known. It is a name that was applied to the décor for ID purposes on my website Kralik-glass.com.
Ironically, I was on your website less than four hours ago. Peachtree & Bennett here in ATL are having an auction in two weeks, and I'm trying to figure out exactly what all the "Loetz" vases really are (Al tells me about 2/3 are NOTLoetz). It might take me two weeks, presbyopic newbie that I am.
Most of those "Loetz" vases are not. Several of them are Kralik.
