Beautiful antique/vintage attributed Franz Welz Bohemian art glass vase dating to the 1930s era.
Features a rich tortoise shell / end-of-day style pattern in a red/orange tone. The vase has an elegant elongated form with:
* Flared trumpet rim
* Applied clear double handles
* Applied clear rigaree-style decorative prunts/spines
* Hand-enameled floral and scroll decoration
Measures approximately 7.5” tall.
Strong Czech/Bohemian Art Deco influence with a very dramatic flame-like appearance and excellent display presence.
Condition:
No cracks noted. There is a noticeable chip to the top rim shown clearly in photos. Expected light wear, tiny bubbles, and minor manufacturing irregularities consistent with vintage hand-blown art glass. Some light enamel wear may also be present.
A striking and uncommon decorative piece for Bohemian or Welz collectors.
