TIŠLJAR
Jeronim Tišljar (1963, Zagreb) studied under Prof Lybenski at the Academy of Applied Arts in Prague, Czech Republic. Upon his return to Croatia, Tišljar focused on glass as sculpture, glass as design and glass in interaction with architecture. Tišljar's works have become part of private collections around the world and his architectural installations can be seen in a number of public institutions, amongst others the Croatian Parliament.Tišljar develops contemporary glass designs for consignees such as the Beranek glass factory in the Czech Republic.

LOGISTICS

* Collection in person (Cape Town) also possible.
* The item will be packed to withstand an earthquake!
* Please do have a look at my other Czech art glass items on offer.
* Please note that glass from the mid-20th century is vintage glassware and age related signs of wear such as small fine surface scratches/marks should be expected. The items are hand-made, they may have imperfections such as bubbles, inclusions and lumps within the glass. Tool marks from where they have been shaped and worked in the manufacturing process can often be seen. As this indicates authenticity and forms an inherent part of the character of handmade crystal glass, these are normally not considered as faults by collectors.
* The images form part of the description.
* This magnificent item is original and rare, hand-made Czech art glass (and not Italian Murano, Daum, Kosta Boda, Orrefors, Flygsfors, Swarovski, Leerdam, Val St Lambert, Whitefriars or Lalique studio glass). I personally handpicked & imported this rare beauty from the Czech Republic for my private collection. Sadly, with retirement on the horizon, I am compelled to scale down and I hope that this beautiful object will provide its new owner with much joy.
* Appreciation and acknowledgement to Messrs Mark Hill, Jindrich Parik and the Vychodoceske Museum for their invaluable archival and comprehensive reference material.
