Question about Czech ceramic
« on: June 01, 2013, 07:31:05 pm »
Hello!
i recently picked this piece, but I must confess to not knowing much about czech pottery.
i have been trying to research the marks, but they are severely worn. If any one has any information on this piece or the mark, please respond.
Value is the least of my worries ;)
Thank you in advance for any info.

Made by a company that started life in Klentsch in the 19th century but was taken over by Jan Milota. This is the full mark



These were originally made during the Deco period but also made later in the 60's and 70's.

It may have been made in the 60,s ..and the 70,s...but it would not have carried this mark..if it was made in the 70,s,....as Czechoslovakia...ce ased to exist in 1968....
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,

Because you're wrong about Czechoslovakia and 1968.

Wasn't it the early 1990s when it was dissolved and turned into two different countries? I was a bit young then, but I seem to remember that.
Take every price I say with a grain of salt...
