    NANNY STILL PARAATI 1943

    Manufacturer: Riihimäen Lasi
    Designed in: 1965
    In production: 1965-1968
    Height: 130, 180, 200 mm
    Clear and blue glass. Three sizes.

    This one is 200mm.

    Nanny Still (1926-2009), also known by her married name, Still-McKinney, is one of the important modern Finnish designers of glass and ceramics. The body of work she created, mainly during the 1950s and 1960s, serves as a reflection of the period's style as well as being a harbinger of the coming innovations in structure, color and functionality.

    This one came home a couple of weeks ago from the first of the month market at Surrey Hills. Love the colour. I think it was originally meant as a candlestick?

      I love it, but I cannot but do it being designed by Nanny Still :)

      This one's missing in my collection, I don't know why but I've always managed to lose it in every auction, no matter how high I was bidding for it :)
    13. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      So you do not think it is one of her designs, Alex?

      I do believe this to be Nanny Still!!
    16. SEAN68 SEAN68, 10 years ago
      This Ufo shaped candlestick is from serie "Paraati" or "Parade".
      The serie-number is 1943 and its been in production 1965-1969.
      Parade-serie has many other parts as well and it was in the export-catalogue. Never signed!
