Finally a serie of 40 vases were made called: "The Industrialists'. They colors we conducted in zirkoonrood, emerald green and yellow helio also some where made in blue . The color yellow heliostats (solar yellow) was difficult to make. The first series was treated as waste by the factory and sold directly to employees of the factory. There were also several models in a light green color bottles made??.

thanks for the loves and comments its kind of a lab bottle shape and it looks great next to your alsterfors Glasswareguy missed you here
it also looks a lot like the 2528 decanter by timo sarpaneva.. glad i found that one after all these years. it doesnt pop up too often.
lab bottle shapes suggest mysterious chemicals and their reactions to me !! i bet those mysterious colours have their function in the proces,am i dreaming or just romantic?(ha ha ha)
