  2. When I read at CW you've posted something a few hours ago I know I'm going to find something great!!!
  3. Well, they were sold pretty cheaply at Woolworth's so I guess there must be a lot of them in the market... I absolute love them!
  4. Thanks everyone for your loves and comments! @cobalt, well, not really.. this is Carlos's althoigh I confess wouldn't mind to have it as my everyday dishware at my own place... In any case, ...
  5. You're so lucky to have items like these that not only have belonged to the family for decades but were actually made by your grandfather!!! It's an amazing vase! (totally stunning! ;) )
  6. Beuuuuuuuuutiful!!!
  7. Haha, I had never heard of that blowing use they made of it in Cozumel, but it sure must be fun after some tequila shots!!! Thanks rebessin for the comment!
  8. I really must catch up with all your posting... been too busy ately!
  9. I love, love, love these!!! Specially te small 7623 nes!
  10. Thanks Amber, LLL and vet for your loves!!! Did you realize that mi PORRO is different from the one in the picture, although it's the same thing. I love to see it was absolutely handblown, with no ...
  11. Oh oh oh ooooooohhhh! I'm wordless! I love those jug and decanter!
  12. so it is the original one :)
  13. Haha, everybody loves this goat! TRhanks everyone for your many loves!!!
  14. Your WH collection is amazing!!!
  15. Is one of the original ones? Mine comes from a reedition from 2002 (It is signed "Exhibition edition 2002 Timo Sarpaneva")
  16. by the way, I realized there ¡s a lot of Goula figurines on the American eBay... none on the Spanish one! Funny, isn't it?
  17. you're welcome, vlkma! after all, Wiesenthalhütte is the most Scandinavian-looking of the German glassworks...
  18. of course, levi! they will come out some day!
  19. Thanks Amber and nldionne! I am so happy you chose the word adorable!!! :) And thanks everyone else for your loves!!!
  20. Here's one a black one that seems to be in a good condition. Unfortunately the previous owner changed the original light bulb for a LED one (not too bad... after all I think the original bulbs are no...
  21. I guess it's not me, but Per Lütken to put the blame on! :) Thanks Amber!
  22. Best of it for you!!!
  23. Thanks Bellin! Well, you just need a little bit of patiente and good luck ;)
  24. You're welcome, Bellin! Well, I knew it well cause I've got one just like that. There is another Arnica vase, taller and a bit narrower... I once wanted to collect Wirkkala's designs but he made so m...
  25. It's nice with the red bird! It will be a real eye-catcher at the next fair you have a stand in!
  26. Picture no.3 is Tapio Wirkkala ARNICA vase. Congratulations! Number 4 showing animals cannot be Flora, but FAUNA, also by Oiva Toikka. As for the other three... I haven't got the faintest ide about ...
  27. Thanks Amber! they're great little pieces!
  28. It looks great even without its upholstering...
  29. The fact of having solid glass bases gives an extra depth to the colour. They're simply great!
  30. Thanks artislove for the love and the comment! These candleholders, and in general the other items from the last Akva series, show a more intense shade of aqua blue (in the original ones it was a ver...
  31. I've been told that this one was probably made between 1949 and 1960 :) Nice!!!
  32. You're right. It's the 3010 pitcher, designed by H.H. Engler in 1959. It appeared in the 1960 and 1961 ctalogues although it was into production until 1966. Great pitcher, I love it!
  33. Great! Is it possible for you to upload a pic of the signature... that would be the best way to find out about it!
  34. Mmmm... so far I have got two versions: there's a small one made to commemorate Alvar Aalto's 100 birth anniversary (but i do believe it must have some "iittala" engraved somewhere by the signature) ...
  35. :) Bellin's always so nice!!!
  36. Thanks Bellin!!! I'm very proud of these three little beauties.
  37. I think it's understandable. I love you're always so curious about everything about art and design, vet!
  38. Signed Alvar Aalto 3030? I think I will ask some Finnish experts about the value of this vase.
  39. So great the fish has been identified so soon! great littñe groups of collectors we've got here!!! :)
  40. Thanks moonstonelover and vintage_Joe! I am so glad you like these items!
  41. Thanks bobogal! Well, that's pure Per Lütken design... he really took organic design into a new dimesion
  42. Islamic??? No, I don't think so. Galicia had almost no Islamic influence... apparently along with Asturias and the Basque Country it was far too poor (meaning the land there didn't allow big crops, ...
  43. Another beauty!!!! It's amazing how beautiful these buble ases are!
  44. and its equally gteat to learn about it. Strömbergshyttan is so unfairly unknown!
  45. Thanks for the loves and comments, Vet, Amber, Rebessin, mikko and mustangtony! I hadn't got any of these until last year... I was lucky to find them all of a sudden!
  46. By the way, did you know you can write to the people from Orrefors and ask them about these fish items?
  47. My Ingeborg Lundin yellow and purple small vases are also signed "of", so that proves yours are!!! :)
  48. Such a great photo!!! I love the history of Strömbergshyttan as a purely family business, and even more when one can see they reached such high quality profiles!
  49. Lucky you had one and could experience good design firsthand, even without knowing it! :) Glad to bring those good memories to you, hulalady!
  50. thanks moonstonelover!!!
