    Came across a vase from Flygsfors recently. Signed "Flygsfors -59" and as it looks like "NS" or Ns". I don't know the designer but I think it could be Viktor Berndt. Someone who knows more about the vase from Flygsfors?

    Height 160mm. A green-grey underlay, but the pattern is applied on the surface and seems to be some kind of painting or printing.

      Great vase! Very unusual style and technique for Flygsfors isn't it?

      Thanks SEAN, surfdubb, racer4four and lovers! Yes it's a vase different from many other Flygsfors glass pieces from late 1950s. The grey-green color however, I have seen in this Flygsfors post, also an unsolved mystery in case of the designer:

      Today I got an answer from Flygfors-experts. The vase shape is probably by Viktor Berndt, but the painted dekoration is a pattern by Nils Sturesson (the NS signing), who was boss over the painting workshop in Flygsfors.
