Handkerchief Vase Thread - Not Italian
David555:
I thought it would be fun to start a thread for Chance Glass Handkerchief Vases, also any other Countries / Manufacturers other than Italy
Murano board has its 'Fazzoletto Thread' so this is for the 'Glass' board
Any rarer hand finished items appreciated - not just by Chance but by the many Scandinavian companies that also did this type of vase - also good idea to keep emphasis on 1950 - 70
Here is 7" high (up to 9" across) Chance 'Double Rolled' Handkerchief Vase - Blue 'Aqualux', c1960s
I love the hand finishing to all the edges and the Double Rolled / Aqualux thing which gives the lovely consistent mottled effect - not to sure about the 'double rolled' description - I know Aqualux was an older type glass used only for a short time before Fiesta came in, is Aqualux the thickness/type of glass and 'double rolled' the effect (mottled)

You can still get these so cheap and I think they stand up easily against some of my Italian Fazzoletto

Could you be more explicit. please? Which companies?
David555:
Ahhh now we may make some discoveries here Ivo
But here is a Muurlanlasi Oy of Finland Vase - signed 'Muurla' - I suggest it keeps within the boundaries of the vases I am talking about
I mean, it will mostly be Chance, I am just opening the door a bit
