[QUOTE="artsfarm, post: 187660, member: 3418"]Hi folks, Marie, what an incredibly beautiful piece! I forgot how swoony I get over Art Nouveau glass until I stated looking through tons of it on Google just now lol. I'm thinking Loetz, as well. The last vase you linked to has an 'X' scratched into the bottom with the number like yours (below). The seller called it an 'A' but there is no horizontal line, making it look more like an 'X'. The shape, intense color and overall 'feel' are similar, too. I thought at first the MF maybe was Muller Freres but the mark would be on the glass and not the overlay, and looks completely different anyway. I'd lean more toward Loetz. Years ago, I passed a giant heap of 'stuff' in front of a house that had been emptied out. 99% of it was trash, but I spotted a black and silver vase on the ground.
