OR Decanter Bottle. THE LAST PHOTO IS A PICTURE OF THE BOTTLE WE FOUND. You are bidding on the clear bottle, not the green bottle. We don't see where it is signed but we found the identical bottle in Malachite. It shows the bottle is c1920's to 30's Curt Schlevogt. Stands 10&1/2" tall overall. Our consigner purchased this bottle from one of the Jack Osborne Estate Auctions (brother of Tom Osborne) . I believe it is an original, however, you should do your own research.

From the internet:
Curt Schlevogt (1869-1959) designed the molds for a famous series of Czech artistic pressed-glass items. By 1940, the Schlevogt firm owned more than 1,300 glass molds, coin molds, and hand presses. It had its own cutting, sand-blasting, and acid-etching workshops, and produced bottles in various Art Deco shapes, stoppers with relief-pressed nudes, couples, flowers, and butterflies. The Czechoslovakian government nationalized the glass industry after World War II and the Schlevogt firm shuttered, though most of the molds still exist.
