RINDSKOPF, RARE DOUBLE GOURD BUD VASE, MOLDED FOOTED w GRADUATING COLORS, NICE~~

Description: For auction is a wonderful piece of art glass made by Josef Rindskopf of Bohemia which is now modern day Czech Republic. I call this pattern line a bulbous Double Gourd Bud vase. The vase is a nice cabinet size as it stands 8 9/16" tall and 3 1/2" in diameter at the top at the bottom gourd. The foot of the vase has a diameter of 2 3/4". The vase displays a wonderful double gourd form with a long neck to receive a long stem Rose. It has a molded bottom with a raised vertical zipper like pattern that surrounds the entire bulbous bottom. The glass composition is similar to Loetz's silberiris decor but I feel much prettier. The bud vase bleeds from the top a wonderful teal green and getting ever so lighter as it works it way down to the bulbous bottom. Then green transitions into a lime green and a Cypriot type textured yellow at the bottom. The entire vase has iridescence to it with the top showing a deep purple blue iridescence unlit. The vase is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. The vase has a polished top rim with no pontil on the bottom. This means the vase was blown from the top into a mold and cut and polished. The Vase is unsigned as is the case with Rindskopf art glass vessels. This vase more than likely had a paper label at one time. This is documented decor from the Rindskopf but this is the first time I have ever seen it on this shape and with this glass composition. This is a beautiful hand made Vase and quite Rare to find. I have been dealing in Art Glass for almost 40 years and this is the first time I have ever had this form with this pattern. Subsequently I would consider this a Rare piece. I'm quite sure the buyer will be very pleased with their purchase. This Vase was made at the turn of the century, Circa 1900-1910. PLEASE READ BELOW I want to apologize for slowing down my shipping time. Ebay forced me into managed payments in July of 2020. I used to get my money in 24 hours. I now get it in 3-4 business days. I was told it would be better for me and my fees would go down. This has been the opposite as my fees have actually increased and now it takes longer for me to receive the payments. Because of this slowdown I will not ship until the payment has made it into my bank account. No store lets you out of the building with the merchandise unless it is paid for. They are also now charging all sellers a commission of 11.7% on sales tax. Pay Pal used to charge 2.9% payment processing fee but Ebay has changed this to 11.7%. This is an increase of 8.8% on the sales tax portion. They are now making a profit on the sales tax and treating it as a sale which in my eyes is wrong!! They did the same on the shipping charges several years ago. They use to not charge anything and now they are charging 11.7% commission on shipping as well. This has raised the cost to ship items to you, the buyer and this is factored into my shipping charges. If you feel what Ebay is doing is wrong or you don't agree them please contact Ebay and voice your opinion. Maybe if enough of you do this, they will change their policy.
