A stylish and luminous iridescent art glass vase by Wilhelm Kralik Sohn, Bohemia, circa 1900. This handblown piece features a vibrant cranberry-to-amethyst ground, richly accented by applied white threading in a pulled ribbon motif. Its bold ruffled rim and shimmering finish are hallmarks of Kralik’s renowned Art Nouveau-era production.
Measuring 7.25 inches high by 5.5 inches in diameter, the vase is signed “Kralik” on the underside — a rare and desirable detail, as many examples from the period were unsigned. The vase exhibits the refined craftsmanship and color experimentation for which Kralik is celebrated, making it a standout collector’s piece.
Ideal for collectors of antique Bohemian glass, Art Nouveau decorative arts, or simply those with an eye for luminous, sculptural design.
