Orange/amber crackle decanter to ID please.

(1/1)

david31162:
Can anyone help me ID this decanter? My photographs don't do it justice, there is a clear yellow band at the shoulder  (in most lights) . It has a snapped off pontil mark with no polishing or grinding.The whole thing is 24cm high including stopper.



Thanks, David

Andy:
David,
this looks possibly 1960s Blenko, American, they did crackle glass and similar colours,
might be worth googling about a bit. Stoppers unusual, may help someone.
Another possibility, mainland Italy :huh:

Good luck,
Andy

Thanks Andy,
That was my only thought that it could possibly be Blenko when i bought it. However, I've only seen pictures so have no real idea. I thought Amberina Crackle seems to be the nearest- but as you say I couldnt match the stopper to anything Blenko.
Cheers, David

alexander:
The stopper made me think of Erik Høglund, but that could be waaay off.

david31162:
I see what you mean!
I must have looked through hundeds of Blenko pics, no sign of a similar stopper. Perhaps it is an Italian version.
