Austro-Bohemian Jugendstil Iridescent Art Glass Vase, c. 1900–1910
An exceptional hand-blown art glass vase from the golden age of Austro-Bohemian Jugendstil. Produced around 1900–1910, it combines an elegant trumpet-shaped silhouette with a broad rolled collar, richly feathered decoration, and delicate satin iridescence, exemplifying the technical innovation and artistic sophistication that established Central European glass among the finest decorative arts of the Art Nouveau period.

Technique: Pulled, feathered and combed decoration

Design
The gently flaring form culminates in a generous rolled collar, where the feathered decoration radiates around the opening in an almost floral pattern before flowing seamlessly down the body in elongated, organic currents. Layers of coloured glass have been carefully stretched and combed, creating remarkable depth and movement.
Historical Context
Unsigned examples of this quality are increasingly appreciated for their artistry and technical refinement. The form, decoration, colour palette, and iridescent finish place this vase firmly within the tradition of Austro-Bohemian Jugendstil glass produced around 1900, recalling the innovative work of leading workshops such as Johann Loetz Witwe, Kralik, Pallme-König, and Rindskopf, while not permitting a definitive workshop attribution.
