AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This vase is a beautiful example of Bohemian (Czech) Glass from the mid-to-late 19th century (approximately 1840 – 1890).
The deep cobalt blue glass was immensely popular in the 19th century, especially in Bohemia.
The shape, featuring a stepped stem and a widened spherical section, is typical of the Biedermeier and Victorian eras.
Since this type of glass rarely carries a factory mark, it is difficult to name a specific producer. However, the most likely region and companies are:
• Region: Bohemia (Present-day Czech Republic). This was the largest and most influential center for decorative glass production in the 19th century.
• Production Period: 1840 - 1880.
• Likely Manufactories:
• Moser Glassworks (although their glass often features slightly finer decoration).
• Loetz Witwe
• Other large and smaller workshops in the North Bohemia areas (e.g., in the Haida/Steinschönau region).
