Etsy - TheTrueVintageHome Large Scandinavian Sky Blue & Clear Heavy Ovoid Glass Vase
Description
A large tactile ovoid shaped heavy based blown sommerso style glass vase, in the style of Swedish Orrefors / Scottish Caithness glassmakers. With a softly rounded unground top rim, this beautiful translucent blue & clear large glass vase looks decidedly mid century, but being unsigned without a label I cannot be sure of its heritage. Referencing the style of art glass vases designed by famous Gunnar Nylund & produced between 1952-1955 Strmbergshyttan in Sweden, or Sven Palmqvist for Orrefors 1950s-60s, this could be a Caithness or even Whitefriars. It is a lovely vase in any case. It is in very good pre-loved condition, there are no chips or damage, only minimal shelf marks to the base, & a little very light surface scratch to the outside, which can only be seen in certain light, & are very small. There is a concave ground pontil mark to the base. A beautiful & practical vase which looks just as good on its own or as part of a larger glass collection. Dimensions: Weighing 2.13kg 20.5cm / 8 high & 13cm / 5 Diameter. (The final photograph shows the vase beside other pieces of Whitefriars & Waterford glass for sale from the True Vintage Home, to show scale.)
