Pat:
I just acquired this absolutely gorgeous Riihimaen vase 10" tall and weighs 1.5kgs. I think it is Nanny Still but need confirmation as it could be Siiroinen. Anyone know?? Thanks Pat.

Haven't a clue Pat, but just had to say - what a fabulous piece :P  Haven't seen one like this before.

Hi Pat

I'll have a look through my book later and see if it's Nanny Still.  I had a quick flip through it yesterday and couldn't see it amongst her work, but I'll have a proper look later today and check out some other people too.

Hi

It looks that like that amazing yellow that Riihimaen did, I don't own a piece in this colour and wonder if it glows under UV - it looks like it should  :shock:

Ref the general shape and use of motifs I vote Tamara Aladin - any chance of a label close up or is it the round gold foil with lynx motif?

Pat:
Hi David, Yes it is the amazing yellow and goes nuclear under UV light. I have several pieces in this yellow including a Siiroinen locomotiv. The label is the round gold one with black lynx and says Riihimaen Lasi, Made In Finland.
