Crystal vase signed "OF" 7" tall - ID = Orrefors
« on: April 08, 2013, 10:50:17 PM »
I picked this little vase up because of the signature on the bottom. I believe it is the letter "OF". To me, it possibly looks like a FORMIA vase from Murano? In the style of Fiorellini? If so, is it possible that his first name started with an "O"? Vase is 7" tall.

Link for similar shape, but much bigger than mine.

Thanks!
