About the Item

Set of four glass snuff bottles, very rare from the 1960s/70s, made of one of the glassworks - probably Joska Kristall, in the Bohemian Forest, Germany. These are collection items that were made to a masterful quality, which is even today a very rare craftsmanship that only a few glass artists still master. The four bottles, are designed differently, two with curved glass threads, the other two with glass dots flowing together. All four are in different colors, from orange, red, violet, green, yellow to blue and white. Measurements each, approx.: height 4,13 in – 10,5 cm, width 3,14 in – 8 cm, depth 0,98 in – 2,5 cm One of the many literatures: Thomas Dexel - Gebrauchsglas, Klinkhardt & Biermann, Munich 1977, page 85, picture page 66 The snuff bottles are mouth-blown (because of that all works are unique and not two identical items exist) and of particularly high quality. A set of collectibles for every elaborate display case. Bottles like these are on display in different European glass museums.
