Vase - Czech or Scandinavian
« on: October 11, 2011, 12:34:31 PM »
9" high in brown glass with undulations or hoops - remains of sheild shaped foil label which has been rubbed.

This feels Czech but could be another country - anyone help or recognise shape or label?

Thanks Adam

The shape suggests it could be a G.H.Hardy import label:

Try dusting label with cigarette ash.

The "Hardy" label referred to is now known to be Hans Geismar, not George Hardy.
