Topic: help with id and use please? - ID = Ingrid Glass

[stew2u2]

anyone help with id of this vase? is it a bud vase i thought it might be scandinavian.

[Ivo]

Never seen this particular one but it is likely to be German - either Walther or Wiesenthalhuette - rather than Scandinavian.

[stew2u2]

i did buy it with a walther candle holder i reconised that one, plus it had a label  :ac1: but the vendor said this was Scandinavian i wasnt going to argue.

With that irregular top rim I wouldn't discount Marsberger Glas either.   
Astrid has a few in her collection: here

I think I have two of these somewhere around different sizes and one has a Nybro label. I will have a search for them to confirm.

I also think they look what I think of as German, so I'd be very interested to see if any of these style turn up with Scandinavian labels, that would be new info. Hope you can fish out the Nybro ones, Paul.

If they're German - not Wiesenthalhütte I think, their finishing is better (no lines or irregular tops). The style doesn't look quite Walther (then again, Walther made many different ones, so I can't really exclude it). But for the rest, from the irregular top and the sort of press mark lines it could be Marsberger, Ingrid Glass, Schott Zwiesel or a smaller company. We'll have to wait until one turns up with a label...

These are not the same exactly,  but look a lot like Astrids, so may help her identify hers?

My first thought was Iittala or Pukeberg.

my second thought is Zwiesel

[astrid]

Yes, I also thought of Schott Zwiesel because of this particular shape. Though I've only seen this particular shape with the green inside so far. But the top part is quite similar.
