    Attached is a photo of a beautiful piece of Kosta art that I have -- but know absolutely nothing about. I have researched the entire internet, but have not had any success in finding anything even similar. Family has traveled worldwide and purchased many gifts in the countries they visited, but I cannot pinpoint an approximate location or even an estimated time it was purchased. The bottom has: Kosta 96445. Then there is some type of mark followed by :innemark The back height is approx. 7" and the front approx. 5 1/2". Any info on this piece would certainly be appreciated, such as the designer's name, when it was produced, where, etc. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

      Would you be able to put up a photo of the base so we can see the engraving?
      If you hold the glass at an angle to the light generally it is more legible. Thanks.

      Thank you racer4four. I have updated with the best photo of the signature I could get.

      Rolf Sinnemark who worked at Kosta 1967-1985 could the 6 actually be an 8? as this would give year of design as 1984 (2nd and 3rd digits in Kosta 5 number codes indicate year of design)

      Thank you for your info -- but the number is 96445. Interesting that a piece had his name if he wasn't working there! Back to my search but certainly appreciate knowing the artist name.
