G. Lindkvist vase
« on: September 09, 2007, 09:18:20 AM »
Okay, I admit, this is not my area, so please excuse my utter ignorance! :-[
I got this vase in an op shop, it's not my style at all, but I thought it looked good quality, & was still quite appealing in it's own way.
It is a cased amber vase with a very thick 3-pointed base. It features a carved-out design of a spray of flowers.
It has two labels, one saying "Made in Sweden", the other identifies it as a product of G. Lindkvist.
It also has an inscribed (& illegible) signature on the base.
Is it any good?

Hi Marinka, I'm wondering if this is a shop/retailer label rather than a maker, as I can only find two more pieces with the same label on but they are so totally different from your vase. One was a small blue glass troll, the other was a paler blue rustic-looking jug with a stopper.
Cheers! Anne, da tekniqual wizzerd
