Found this today at a goodwill...web searched Vicke Lindstrand and I guess this is worth more than the 5.90 I paid for it..but I can't figure out anything else. Any clues?

it says V Lindstrand for Kosta
What a bargain! Amazing piece by Lindstrand. Yhanks for sharing it.
Can you write down the other data?
It looks like cut decoration on the outside?
Do you know what it's worth? I can't read the rest...I think '66?
I think this is a Graal piece.
Very desirable!
I'm totally green!
Wow! I guess I scored! Now where in my house to display it!
I'm not a valuer, just a collector. But look up Kosta Lindstand and Graal. If it is cut on the outside it would not be Graal, I think.
You did score.
Somewhere safe and where you will see it well.
Love that chair too!
it is not cut on the outside...it is smooth all over. I think it is Ariel? Does that sound right?
I'm not looking to sell..Just curious on it's worth. Thanks for all your input! I love it!
Does it read Ariel? Ariel is those bubbles. Also very good! Nice!
no...it only reads what I've already said. I found another ariel by a different artist, linked to Lindstrand...similar piece...sold for $3,499?? That sort of thing just does not happen to me! No way!
