It resembles the Merletto of Archimede Seguso and is, in fact, often attributed to him. More likely, though, is that it was designed by Milan Metelak in Czechoslovakia; a technique he developed in the early 1950s called Harrtil. There are two examples of this glass in Leslie Pina's "Fifties Glass" which are attributed to Seguso (but mention Harrtil as a "possibility"). Since it is not marked and is free of labels you'll have to decide. It's a very sturdy piece with three deep cigarette rests. It has one, wedge-shaped flake to the base about 2cm at its widest point. It is confined to the base and is not easily seen while on display. Dimensions: 5" (13cm) wide, 3.5" (9cm) tall. |
