Antique Bohemian Kralik Baluster Vase — Multicolored Splatter “End of Day” Glass | Fire Decor
$297.68 $372.10
-
DetailsThis Antique Bohemian Kralik baluster vase is a striking example of multicolored splatter glass, executed in the traditional “End of Day” technique.
Its surface dances with upward streaks in red, yellow, blue, and amber, echoing the living movement of flame — a palette historically intended for display near fireplaces.
Crafted on a warm dark amber base, this vase incorporates molten glass remnants from previous work, resulting in a truly one-of-a-kind pattern.
No two “End of Day” pieces are ever identical — the color blend on this example is exceptionally vivid.
About the Maker
The Kralik Glassworks (Czechoslovakia) rose to prominence in the late Art Nouveau and Art Deco eras. Their workshop produced expressive vases, bowls, and containers, often in styles inspired by Loetz and fellow Bohemian masters.
This vase is representative of Kralik’s later period: daring, colorful, and technically sophisticated, with a sculptural baluster form that demands attention.
Condition
Very colorful, skillfully made, and in excellent vintage condition.
Minor wear consistent with age.

Are all items in your shop vintage or pre-loved?
Yes! At Daddy Likes Vintage, every item is carefully curated, either authentic vintage, pre-loved, or a unique collectible. Our collection features a wide range of vintage treasures to add charm and character to your home, including vintage tableware, kitchenware, pottery, collectibles, retro lights, home décor, and furniture. Almost all of our items are one-of-a-kind vintage finds, hand-selected for its quality, charm, and story. Whether you want to decorate, gift, or collect, our shop offers something special.
How do you define “vintage”, "collectible" and "antique"?
We define vintage items as those that are at least 20 years old. Our shop features a wide range of mid-century vintage finds, including vintage ceramics, retro glassware, kitchenware, lights, home decor furniture, and more. Each piece is timeless and tells its own story.
A collectible is any item that holds value to collectors due to its rarity, uniqueness, or historical significance. These items range from vintage tableware and pottery to retro lights and decor. We carelessly curate unique pieces for their craftsmanship, design, or nostalgic appeal.
Antiques are items that are at least from the first half of the 20th century. While our primary focus is on vintage items, we occasionally feature antique treasures that meet this criterion,What condition are the items in?
All items are pre-owned and pre-loved and may show signs of wear or patina, adding to their authentic vintage charm. We expect the buyer to have realistic expectations regarding the item's condition, which is at least 20 years old.
Most of the pre-owned and pre-loved items, no matter how carefully used in the past, will most likely have signs of wear.
We do our best to inspect each piece and provide our assessment of the condition (excellent vintage/very good vintage/good vintage) as well as photos so you know exactly what to expect when shopping for vintage home goods and collectibles.Do you clean or restore the items before selling?
Yes, we gently clean all pieces in our collection, such as vintage kitchenware, retro pottery, and antique furniture. We do not use chemicals to preserve the quality of the surface in its original state (e.g., no polishing). Rarely restorations are performed since we believe that vintage items have a higher value in their original state, which adds unique vintage character to every item. The buyer can decide to perform restoration after the purchase.
Can I request additional photos or details about an item?
Absolutely! If you need extra photos or more details about a specific item like vintage tableware or retro lighting, feel free to contact us through Etsy. We’re happy to help you make an informed decision.
About sizing details
We include detailed measurements for all items, such as antique furniture and vintage lights, in the product descriptions. Rounding mistakes are possible. If you need additional information, feel free to ask us before making your purchase. We are happy to assist you!
Gift wrapping and packaging
Yes, we offer gift wrapping for all our items. An additional cost of EUR 4,00 will apply. If you’re sending a gift, let us know at checkout, and we’ll wrap it beautifully and include a personalized hand-written message (up to 20 words). We can include a handwritten note in English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Ukrainian, or Russian. For any other languages, please include the original text, and we will print it out for you and add it to the package.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes! We offer international shipping, from vintage home décor to retro furniture. Shipping times and costs vary by location; details are listed on each product page. If you have questions regarding the shipping or have additional requests, please do not hesitate to reach out. We are here to assist you!
