 :P  ;)
I was obviously referring to the successful sales you've managed to complete, despite plonkers messing you around.
 :ooh:

I'm not risking putting any kybosh on things for you, honest, really, cross-my-heart........ :thud:

Here are a couple of pictures of mine. It's approx 6.5in/16.5cm tall and marked Boda H1090 to the base.
Many thanks, Anthony

Lovely! Good photos too, they are not easy to photograph well.

I bought that same sculpture a week or two ago but mine does not have the candlestick, I tend to think this one looks quite 'male' and the one I started the thread with quite 'female'. I have no idea if this is what Höglund intended.

Prices for some of Erik Höglund's designs (mostly the little bowls) have gone through the roof in the last few weeks. Presumably they will settle back down at some stage.

Yes. I can see exactly what you mean about the 'male' and 'female' appearance. They're great objects. Will be on the look out for more. Thanks John.
Many thanks, Anthony
