Orrefors Vase, designer, age? ID = Nils Landberg, 1940s
« on: November 13, 2007, 02:33:59 PM »
Came across this very pretty vase the other day, clearly Orrefors but I'm not sure of the designer (for not sure read, "haven't got a clue really!). Following links for some other postings on this subject I think the letter that looks like an "N" could be Nils Landberg, but there are two other letters at the end that look like "O" and "S"   worse than prescriptions to read! Vase is 13cms high.  Any help much appreciated. I don't have Ivo's book but I'm sure he'll have something useful to say! ;)

It's also worth noting that Bill is excellent, just be searching through site and he really does know his Swedish/Kosta/Orrefors glass.
I have read and searched the net and apart from going across to Sweden I have a basic understanding of their glass, however I am slightly confused with their process as I always thought Hald/Gate/Landberg/Palmqvist engraved there own glass. Everyday is a school day!!
