Nanny Still "Saturnus" or Blenko (??)
« on: September 02, 2006, 01:22:54 PM »
Here's an odd question.  The vase has the characteristic Blenko pontil, and no etched signature, but looks very much like Nanny Still for Riihimaki.  It measures 6 3/4" or 17 1/2 cm tall.  The pictures of Saturnus pieces I saw online had a longer rim; if it's Blenko, it's interesting to see this transatlantic exchange of ideas.  Question is, who thought of it first?   :)
Thanks,
Charles.

I'm trying to tidy up the older posts Carolyn - part of the housekeeping/archiving process on the board. ;)
