| Production | analysed: similar to Venetian Verita but higher potassium. Dieter Schaich (Munich) and Erwin Baumgartner (Basel) saw this piece on 8/9/2003 during the AIHV conference in London and believed this to be made in Kassel on the basis of pattern and glass-colour. |
| Bibliographic reference | F.-A. Dreier, Glaskunst in Hessen-Kassel, 1969, no. 9: same mould, form and cane-formation in piece from the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen, Kassel, datable 1583-84. In the glashouse in Kassel there were some glasblowers that also worked at Antwerp and Middelburg. Fragments related to this piece found in Middelburg. Other examples attributable to Southern Netherlands. The glasshouse in Kassel only worked for a very short time. Can't have been a big production. |
