KRALIK, LOETZ, WONDERFUL DECORATED ART GLASS BASKET~~~

Description: For auction I have an outstanding art glass basket made by Wilhelm Kralik Sohn of Eleonorenhain Bohmen (Bohemia) which is now the modern day "Czech Republic". I call this pattern "Swirling Waves" and It is very similar to a Loetz decoration I have seen in the past. The basket is a good size as it stands 12" tall and is 8 1/4" wide and 5 1/2" deep at the widest part of the basket. The basket display a very beautiful pattern of Iridescence moss green waves and Swirls running throughout the piece. The iridescence is on the Inside and outside of the basket. The decoration also reminds me of the King Tut Decoration made my Tiffany, Durand and other early American Manufacturers. The decoration is applied to the basket as you can feel the ridges of the decoration above the surface of the base glass. The decoration is applied to a clear glass base. The basket has a very nice applied clear handle that is accented with small round rosettes that hold the handle to the basket. These rosettes are almost Identical to a Loetz basket that I had many years earlier but I am told by the folks writing the updated Kralik, Rindskopf and Loetz site that this is a Kralik basket The basket is considered to be in excellent condition as there are no cracks, nicks, chips or dings. The piece is not signed but is definitely of European origin. The basket does display a counter sunk polished Pontil. This is the finishing sign of a quality piece of art glass. Purchase with confidence as these decorated baskets are quite rare. I would consider this piece to have been made circa 1910-1925. PLEASE READ BELOWI want to apologize for slowing down my shipping time. Ebay forced me into managed payments in July of this year 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. CLICK ON THIS LINK BELOW TO SEE MY EBAY STORE CLEMENTS ANTIQUES OF NEW HAMPSHIRE STOREFRONT Please wait for my Invoice before paying.
