No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

Something's dingling that this might be Riihimaki, but Della would most likely know for sure.

I've had zillions (ok a few!) Riihimaki lantern type vases - I've not had one this *exact* shape but it looks fine to me and the colour is definitely right so I'd agree with everyone that it's Finnish and probably dating from the 1970s.
