Title: Two Pieces To Identify If You Will
Post by: vambo on July 11, 2006, 10:49:05 AM
I have a small pot with an impressed symbol on the base in the form of 3 candles or maybe a 3 masted boat, any ideas ?

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v32/vamboman/Murano/P6150078a.jpg)

I have also come across three vases with vertical golden stripes, I'm thinking Vicke Lindstrand or maybe Italian ?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Could you please provide a picture of the first item?  Maybe showing the item in question will trigger shomeone's memory.

On the 2nd group of items, they are speaking German to me  :?

Just wondered if the first one might possibly some kind of Arabic or Asian script?

Thanks for the suggestions so far, as requested here's a picture of the 'pot' with the mystery mark. It has a kind of 'hammered' texture.

I'm pretty sure this is the logo for PartyLite who retail candles and a range of candle holders. Also fairly sure I've seen the pictured glass pot with a PartyLite paper label on it.

Thank goodness you see the same as I do, Alastair!
I was convinced from the first image that this was Partylite, but further comments got me worried.
So my vote is absolutely for Partylite.

(The first label I saw had a little scuff on it, so it read Fartylite. It kind of stuck in my memory. ;D )

I won't of course now find a labelled example but one of the green pots was somewhere near us Sue quite recently. I've picked up a few things thinking they looked goodish only to put them down down when I've seen the PartyLite label. Maybe making a mistake :D

I have to confess to rather liking the things such as Ivo posted - they remind me of the Galaxy vases by Svoboda. I like the succulent plant sort of structure too, but I have no use for candle holders.
Some of it has struck me as being good quality. Then I see the label, or the mark and dismiss it.
I suspect I would not dismiss it, if it were not all candle-holders. ;D

Of the three vases in the second picture the two on the right reminded me of Wilhelm Wagenfeld designs for WMF in the Turmalin range. The shapes are similar. Maybe not by him but inspired by him.
