Enameled glass bowl
This very attractive and good quality glass bowl has been decorated with enameling and wheel cutting and is probably the work of Adolf Beckert (1884-1929). Beckert worked for a number of glass factories and was at one time art director at Loetz.
The back of the bowl has been decorated with the figures in black and then a yellow ground applied to give it depth. The base has been wheel engraved to make the very fine intricate geometric pattern. It measures 288 mm (11 3/8 inches) in diameter and stands 42 mm (1.65 inches) high.
There are some very faint scratches to the back, but they are not particularly noticeable. It dates from around 1915-20.
