Gunnel Nyman 'String of Pearls' ?
« on: December 16, 2016, 04:35:21 AM »
Bought this vase last year (the seller had inherited it from her mom, who supposedly bought it in Paris in the 50s or 60s), looks a lot like Gunnel Nyman's 'String of Pearls' vases, only problem is there isn't a signature. It might have been there, there is a great deal of wear and scratches to the base. Did anyone else make vases similar to the 'String of Pearls' vases?  ???

Yep, this is genuine. Early bits were acid signed, breathe on the base and look at it at an angle, you might be able see part of the sig, it'll look like it was written with a marker pen.
