Great Vintage Hofbauer Byrdes Lead Crystal Vase with Cranberry Glass Birds Cameo.

Lead crystal glass vase. Fluted shape. Curved top edge with triangular shapes to top rim. Various pressed patterns to sides. The front and back have a pressed bird on a branch motif, inside an oval shape. The birds, branches and leaves are clear, and the oval is purple (a light to medium shade, not a heavy purple). The rest of the vase is clear glass. The vase tapers inwards towards the bottom to a small square shaped step, which then joins a circular foot. The foot has a pressed flower shape with pointed petals, on the underneath of the foot. No maker's mark, but this was made by Hofbauer Crystal of West Germany, from their 'The Byrdes' collection. Estimated age of this piece, 1980s or earlier. In excellent condition.

External width at top of vase, at widest point, 8cm, 3 2/10 inches.
