Title: Are these interesting glass shakers Scandinavian?
Post by: adriana on September 02, 2006, 04:01:20 PM

Hello~
Here are three interesting and unusual shakers, at least that's what I THINK they are! The larger one is 5 3/4" tall, 3" in diameter at the bottom. The smaller ones are 4 1/4" tall, 2" in diameter at the bottom. Each has a hole on top and a cork on the bottom. Any ideas on these? Scandinavian, perhaps?
Thanks,
Adriana

Hi Adraina,

Yes they are. Designed by Bertil Vallien for Kosta (?) Boda, Sweden.

Adriana - these are fabulous, just the sort of thing I collect personally! If you're thinking of listing them for sale anywhere I'd appreciate you letting me know.  Cheers.
