    Spontana is my favorite series of Orup vases. I already presented two of them to you. Here

    and here

    The bottle vase is a new aqcuisition. It stands 41 cm high and measures 8 cm in diameter. What I really love about these vases is their transparency so that you can see the color streaks shining through from the other side.

      What a beautiful couple this is :-) Your Spontana collection is growing indeed! Seeing them here together on the photo shows how they highlight and accentuate each other's beauty. I think that's why the glass artists mostly did series, and not just single patterns. They day you've got all of them you really must take a picture and show to us!

      Dear Sean, yes, it's true, a long time. Dear Designqvist. So good to hear from you. You are right. A vase shold never be alone. I don't really have the ambition to really have all items of a series. But three is good! Four is better!
