Abp or Czech crystal vase ? pattern identification

Keops · Jul 28, 2013

Hi there. I need your help to identify this crystal vase. It seems to be Abp or Bohemian Czech but i dont know because they are similar patterns. The vase is mounted in bronze, 7.5 "diameter. and 9" high, and there is no sign / wear marks. Any help will be much appreciated.

Not sure, but?

Why do you think its Bohemian glass? It may be American Brilliant Cut Glass. Have you looked on the bottom area of the glass for any acid etched makers marks. They are hard to find at times and you'll need to cast a light refrection around to see it if it has a mark. Some glass I know where never marked. Also do you see any markings on the bronze work? You may want sign up on this website for the American Cut Glass Association American Cut Glass Association I think you may have something extraordinary.

Thanks Tamrock. I saw some pictures of bohemian and i saw similar patterns but if you say that is an ABP i believe you and we will do the focus in the differnt markers of ABP. I look closely with a light and it hasn´t got marks. The same for the bronze, no marks. Is difficult to determine who made these unmarked crystal vases? I think knowing those who never signed his pieces we could refine our search and find at least among that years was made this vase. I upload new pics from different angles and without the bronze. I will sign up in this page and Thanks for your appreciation
