    Help needed on this vase found this week at Vinnies for a few dollars.

    Swedish.
    Made in Sweden blue and white round sticker.

    15.5cm x 7.5cm x 5cm
    6.8" x 3.0" x 2.0"
    Smallish!

    No signature.
    Pressed glass.

    Any ideas in which direction to go?

    Erik Hoglund for Kosta is Sean's suggestion and thanks to him for it. Wiktor Berndt for Flygsfors was another of my ideas. I have not been able to get any further on this one.

    Unsolved Mystery

    6. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Many thanks TOM!
    7. kisslikeether kisslikeether, 10 years ago
      Josef Schott for Smålandshyttan is also an avenue to look into.
    8. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      I did have a look at Smålandshyttan too but give it another go, thanks KISSLIKEETHER!
    9. SEAN68 SEAN68, 10 years ago
      Your welcome Kevin:) and anytime:)
    10. austrohungaro austrohungaro, 10 years ago
      I have two options... one was Josef Schott for Smålandshyttan and the other is Göte Augustsson for Ruda...
    11. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Many thanks TOM, GARY, DON, MIKE & AUSTRO too!
      That's something I did think of Austro ... Ruda. But my search did not involve Göte A. Let's see!
    12. aldo78 aldo78, 10 years ago
      Stunning really love it:)
    13. rebessin rebessin, 10 years ago
      Göte Augustssons glass from Ruda have mostly an inwarmed and "hand formed" edge. It's not only blown in a mold/form like this one. This has a cutted edge. Augustssons glass was put on a pontil spike and then the edge was warmed and formed by the blower. Only cuttet/grinded in the bottom to get the pontil mark smoth. This vase looks moore like Schott and Smålandshyttan in my eyes, but the mark "made in Sweden" is a little confusing. Could also be other glassworks, Skruf, Lindshammar or others.
    14. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Thanks ALDO, ANTIQUES-NJ, ALFREDO, GARGOYLE, PHIL, JARROD, CHARLIE and to you too REBESSIN for the comments. I'll have another look round Skruf and Lindshammar too.
    15. AmberRose AmberRose, 10 years ago
      Hi V! Sorry, late to this cool find. I first thought Skruf when I saw your picture. Not sure if that means anything but that was my first gut reaction
    16. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Thanks Amber. Did you see my comment about the Bitossi ash tray = SETA?
    17. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Those circles are very Bengt Edenfalk!
    18. SEAN68 SEAN68, 10 years ago
      Im so confused by that sticker is because , when I see that I think of vintage Kosta !
    19. Aimathena Aimathena, 10 years ago
      Gor....geous!! I need to look through more of your posts!
    20. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Thanks SEAN, Slave to the G and AIMATHENA too!

      Stickers are a mystery, Sean.
      Impermanent.
      For years I considered them as 'ugliness stuck on a beautiful object'.
      Now they are indicators of age, nationality and manufacturer.
      An imperfect science.
    21. SEAN68 SEAN68, 10 years ago
      Your very welcome Kevin:) I so agree with you as well:)
    22. ozmarty ozmarty, 10 years ago
      Pukeberg?????
    23. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Many thanks POPS & MARTY too for that idea!
    24. AmberRose AmberRose, 10 years ago
      Hi V, I did see it and commented back my thanks. Good intel, appreciate all your effort.
      I was going to go with Bengt Edenfalk as well. (A very Lord of the Rings name). I keep coming back to him.
    25. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago
      Many thanks AMBER, AIMATHENA, POPS & SLAVETOTHEG!
    26. Budek Budek, 10 years ago
      Hey Kevin! Did any of the Finnish glass artists ever work for Swedish companies?
      A beautiful piece!

    33. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago

    34. SEAN68 SEAN68, 10 years ago

    42. vetraio50 vetraio50, 10 years ago

    43. Zowie Zowie, 10 years ago
      I believe that seen some of the mess it left behind & I have never heard of a Tornado there before I used to live in Turramurra on kissing point road & worked at Claude Fays
