Classic piece of excellent workmanship: it is a Bohemian crystal vase, belonging to the "Xandra" line. Material: It is superior lead crystal (as indicated by the "24% PbO" sticker). The presence of lead is what gives the vase that particular shine, the consistent weight and the typical metallic and prolonged sound when it is "plucked".
Processing: The decoration is a classic "Pinwheel" (pinwheel or star), one of the most iconic motifs of the Czechoslovakian glassmaking tradition. It features deep cuts that refract light in a spectacular way. Origin: The stamps indicate "Czechoslovakia" and "Slovakia". This suggests that the vase was produced in the late 1980s and early 1990s, during or shortly after the state split. Bohemia (region of the Czech Republic) is historically the world "capital" of this type of crystal. Price not negotiable.
