ho2cultcha thankyou for the kind words , the more i think about , im guessing that they could be ill have to do some research and find out :)
Hi, Bellin! Hope you're all recovered now and feeling great. : )
I read ho2cultcha's comment with great interest. (He has such great taste. : ) ) I parked this fabulous ensemble in my 'catch-all wonderful art glass collection', "Scandinavia et alia (and others) art glass". I have a hunch that this is of relatively recent production - that is, post 1950. However, I really haven't an intelligent opinion as to who designed these pieces and when, and so I'd just like to advance an observation that might spark a realization in others who are more knowledgeable than I. It's looks to me like the top rims have been VERY simply finished after having been sliced. I don't have good resolution on this laptop, so I don't know if this 'observation' is correct. I'd like to say that I cannot think of a single early bauhaus glass vessel with such a relatively simple finish. I say 'early' because bauhaus is still popular. Good luck, sir! : )
thankyou very much miKKoChristmas for your input and that means a lot to me as well and i totally unerstand of what your saying and im thinking maybe Tallcakes would have an answer as well what do you think?
You're most welcome, sir, and thank you very much for your kindness! Yes, Tallcakes amazes me. He was one of the very first persons I followed. Other candidates Cogito, Ozmarty, Greatsnowy, vlkma, cobaltcobald, etc. I'm surprised that Vetraio, AmberRose, Austro, and yourself haven't already ID'd it. Must be a really hard one : )
Also, Glasswareguy!
Hi, Bellin! Had insomnia, so finally gave up trying to sleep and worked on this some. Couldn't find it. Was thinking perhaps Wilhelm Weganfeld, but although I found a circa post 1950 WW pitcher with minimalist finishing on the top cut, I didn't find any of these minimalist cut pitchers with the 'chunky' glass base. It is also unusual for being rectangular. The ice bucket reminds me a lot of the Kosta Boda ice bucket AmberRose sent you several months ago.
Could be wrong, but it looks really 80s to me... you know, those "design" 80s where everything was designed by an architect, had pure straight lines, the 80s of the Mario Botta chairs... not the 80s of the acid colours and the crazy shapes :)
hello sweetheat and thankyou your hard work and efforts :) and it does remind me of the kosta icebucket that amberrose sent a while ago:)
thankyou austrohungaro for the love:)
Thank you austrohungaro for input:)
I love the simplicity and elegance of the design; but that's probably the architect side of me. My insight on glass is mostly from being a student of EAPG but I do enjoy seeing many of the different examples of glass here on CW.
Thankyou for your input and you very kind words:) and thank you for sharing as well:)
Thank you tall cakes And line 25 as to u as well;)
tried a google shopping search for square crystal pitcher: take a look at this Luigi Bormioli with sticker:
