Just a note to say Wuidart imported a lot of Swedish glass( which I am sure you know already).....I have seen a Wuidart label on something before which also said Swedish Art Glass.  I have no idea what the Wuidart/Whitefriars labels looked like though, never seen one.  Has anyone else?

There are two on my site, one in the 'Identification/Labels' section, the other in the 'Other Bud Vases' section.  See below for a link.  :D

Thank you, Emmi & Pat.  It certainly looks a similar colour to the Swedish Wuidart bud vase!  I wonder if the jelly glass shape could have been made in Sweden though  :-\  It doesn't seem to me to be a typically Swedish design. Has anyone any examples of that shape or style of thing being made by any of the Swedish companies?  I admit this is not an area I know much (or indeed anything at all  ::)) about!
