Title: Heavy signed hexagonal cased vase, scandi? ID = Edenfalk for Skruf
Post by: WhatHo! on May 09, 2011, 05:47:43 PM

Hi, any help on this beautiful, heavy vase would be great. Its 7.5" tall and 4" across. The base is signed twice on opposite sides, I would think Scandi. Has anyone got any ideas of maker and what the signatures say? TIA Wolfie

Hi Michael, that's great, cheers!
Does anyone else know what the other signature stands for with what looks like a '3' at the end? TIA Wolfie

What a wonderful item - wish I had one in my Scandinavian collection.

Thoughts about the 3
(1)  A size reference.  That is, they made at least 3 sizes.
(2)  A (very) limited edition number.
(3)  The actual glassblower's "signature" - that is number three of however many blowers they used at the time.

If I had to punt I would go with my second suggestion.
