I picked up this piece at a local flea market about a year ago; it just happens to be documented on the same page as the scent bottle I posted last night in the book Die Eisch-Huette, by Katharina Eisch (see last photo scan). Signed Eisch '89 within the ground and polished pontil.
This motif (winged elephant) is a stylization of the Eisch logo, using the handle of the cup to form the elephant's trunk. This is also part of the "Poesie in Glas" (Poetry in Glass) series.
another beautiful piece -- great collection -- and a nice find
