Antique Kralik Honeycomb Panel Art Nouveau Iridescent Thorn Footed Glass Vase

  
(BOHEMIA / CIRCA - 1900). This is a Remarkable Studio Hand-Blown and Molded Turn-Of-The-Century Iridescent Jugendstil (Art Nouveau) Art Glass vase with a green patterned top and iridescent amethyst thorn tripod feet. With a height of 6 inches, a diameter 5 1/2 inches. This delightful glass creation is a masterpiece of the glassmith's art and a wonderful piece of Early 20th Century decor. The upper bowl of the vase is transparent iridescent green glass. The base portion was actually blown separately from iridescent amethyst glass then applied to the underside of the bowl of the vase. This unique combination gives the illusion of a textured blossom-like bowl that seems to grow above the table on a stem of thorny branches! Other examples can be found on the internet in different colourways but this a particularly nice one, in my opinion! The vase is in very good condition with just a couple of small chips on the rim and one on a foot as pictured.

5" tall x 4" widest diameter.
