How do I identify a Loetz vase?

How do I identify a Loetz vase?
To identify a Loetz vase, turn the piece over and examine its pontil — the ring-shaped tip formed during the blowing process. Most Loetz vases will display the maker's signature in a circular marking around the pontil. Some pieces may also feature a number that you can cross-reference with information published on trusted online resources to discover the production year and style name of your vase. To get assistance with the identification process, use the services of a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of Loetz vases.
