Marika,

Welcome to the board.

Thank you for the rapid response. It is sad that labels are sometimes  applied to deceive.
It is still a nice vase, and worth holding on to.
Regards,
Marcus

Quite right, Marcus.
It most certainly is worth holding on to!

Pip.  I'm with you on that.  This vase really sparkles and catches the eye.  


Sorry, Della.  I did a bit of glass-blowing the other week and that's the word everyone was using.
 
Note to self:  Stop being pretentious when talking to real people.  :-)

Hi

It's nice that Marcus informed me about this vase that isn't Iittala's vase
even if it has Iittala's sticker.
When I bought that I assumed that I was Iittala's vase even when Iittala couldn't identify that vase. Sometimes some vase had been made for some company and that's why it hasn't been in normal catalogs. I thaought that was the case now. And boy was I wrong. :cry:

I will remove that picture on next update.

Hiya Marika, I'd say it's perfectly understandable and reasonable to assume that a sticker is correct (even when it's not) so don't feel bad about it - I think your site is fabulous and I'm positive if you took a look at mine you'll find a few dodgy attributions  :oops:

I do have Iittala from time to time but it's one of the makes that sells virtually as soon as it's put up for sale - very popular stuff.  Oooooh what did you buy?  Show us a piccie ....  :D
