Stromberg
« on: April 09, 2007, 07:25:39 PM »
   Hello,  I have purchased a small oval vase today because, a/ I like it, & b/  It was cheap.  I would like to know more about it.   It is made of thick walled glass, approx. 3" tall, and is engraved? with violets.   On the base, which is quite scratched, it has "Stromberg   sh7  atan  1171/411"   other than the Stromberg, the rest is not well engraved, and could well be wrong, but is the best I can do at present.  Hope somebody may be able to help.    Best regards,   John.

Many thanks Ingela & Terry for your replies.  Strombergshyttan, doesn't seem to have been going long enough, guessing the age of this vase.

I have tried using the site photo posting facility to add an image, but am unable to get any of the blue ringed "click here"s to work, so unable to register. Any ideas??

The factory has been going since 1933. How old do you think your vase is?
If I know, I'll comment. If I think I know, I'll have a go. If I have no idea, I'll just keep quiet and learn from others, so the next time I'll know.

I'm a bit mystified by your reference to blue ringed "click here"s in respect of the Gallery registration. Have you read through the Gallery Help page here... it will walk you through the whole registration, album and photo process.... see here: http://glassgallery.yobunny.org.uk/glassgallery_help.html.
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd

   Hi Della, good to know the companies that old. I was only going by the earlier web site, given to me by Ingela, which gives the start date at 1987.  Are there any sites giving access to the earlier work?

   Anne, with ref. to the photo site,  I meant the RED ringed items, not the blue, on the Gallery Help Page, sorry. I still find nothing happens when clicking on these places, and as I am not a great computer person, wonder whether its my pc, or the site.
             Best wishes,  John.

The red ringed bits are on pictures not actual screens, easiest way is to have two windows open, one on the help pages and the other on the actual gallery screens.

Hi John,

Now I understand your comment. I didn't read all the information given through the link {{slaps own hand}}
With regard to placing a photo, you can always send it to me (click email envelope to the left <-- ) and I can post it for you, but, once you know how, yobunny is really a friendly and easy site to use.
If I know, I'll comment. If I think I know, I'll have a go. If I have no idea, I'll just keep quiet and learn from others, so the next time I'll know.

I say most definitely Strombergshyattan.
