"Ivo I have tried most if not all the glassworks in Scandinavia-most designers seem to sign their works as do the Italian glass designers"
I think because these where quite bread and butter pieces made in large quantities they would only have only been stickered as etching/signing every one would have been to time consuming and expensive. And because they would have been straight in the washing up bowl as soon as opened most dont have labels either
good luck in finding it :thup:

Yup - probably most Scandinavian glass is unsigned, especially tableware.
