Orrefors Lundin Vase and signed unknown vase
« on: December 01, 2006, 02:50:11 PM »
Can anyone give me more info on these two pieces?

First is this 11" Orrefors vase, it is signed Orrefors DU 3343.  From what I have learned the D stands for Ingeborg Lundin, the U for handmade or uncut.  Can anyone confirm this info or give me more?

Next is this signed vase.  It is 6 1/4" tall.  I cannot figure out who made it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Looking at Lundin pieces for sale, her pieces seem to be priced very high on the Orrefors scale.  I have been unable to find any pieces like this for sale, but have seen a 1951 catalog reprint in Vigier & Pina's "Smoke and Ice." with a piece similar in optic pattern by Lundin.

I know people don't like to give values to pieces, but some for sale by her are in the thousands of dollars.  Anyone like to give me a guess at the value?

Just a guess  :oops:
I could imagine

G Munch
789 2.95 (Feb. 1895 ??)

historismus - the motif looks pre 1900

google and wikipedia - no success - there is only Edvard Munch the painter and some squirrel feeding munch glass  :roll:

Die Erfahrung lehrt, dass, wer auf irgendeinem Gebiet zu sammeln anfängt, eine Wandlung in seiner Seele anheben spürt. Er wird ein freudiger Mensch, den eine tiefere Teilnahme erfüllt, und ein offeneres Verständnis für die Dinge dieser Welt bewegt seine Seele.
Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.
Alfred Lichtwark (1852-1914)

Your 2nd piece is by the Kjellander family.

I have a perfume bottle decorated by them.

This link won't be active long so I will add the short history from my description here


Quote
The Kjellander family has been doing copper engraving since the 18th century in Sweden. One of the Kjellander brothers - Lars Kjellander was an engraver at Kosta from 1881-1925 and was also at Orrefors. His brothers remained and ran the family business which closed in recent years.

Hi bigdog,
i had this identical vase! sold it on ebay about a year ago, dont think i
got a fortune about £40 , although i think mine was a little smaller,
maybe 9" tall, but my memory is hazy and could be same one!
i deleted any photos i had ages ago.
Nice vase though!
Cheers Andy
