Topic: Erik Hoglund? and if not then who can it possibly be?

[flying free]

I'm still searching on this one and probably barking up the wrong tree as John has said. However, I had another search and have come up with two pieces that bring me back to Hoglund as a possible again -

On this site there is one vase that has a flattened rim, although admittedly wider than mine and the neck looks obviously different, and in addition there are a couple of triangular vases that look as though they are indented on the sides as mine is.  What do you think?
That reminds me, I must revisit a  link you gave me John as I think there was a bubbly vase on there attributed to someone other than Hoglund

these just show the variation in the amber colourway and also the shapes/shoulders that aren't quite so defined as say my purple one is

What do you think?

I think it is unlikely to be Boda, if you could find the same shape signed then that would be different.... Do you have any Boda examples in amber so that you can make a side by side comparison of colour etc?

That site is frightening, so many examples I would like to buy. :mrgreen:  I found this one last week at a reasonable price, it's yummy: http://picasaweb.google.com/Johnmj100/ErikHoglund#5556223501044291298

   yes, I know, I am clutching at straws.
I was wondering also Magnor?  Did they do these random smaller bubbles?

mm, I love that site as well and at the moment they have a large selection available  very tempting

Two flattened vases in light amber with random bubbles, pontil mark polished out. Leerdam des. F. Meijdam, 1970s. No marks.

Not saying yours is one too, but both colour, finish and bubbles are strikingly similar.

Ivo, thank you so much for the pics!  I looked back through other posts and saw your references to Lindshammer and Leerdam and have been searching trying to find pictures.  My books are not specific enough to cover either.
My vase has a definite casing of clear amber on the base, do the Leerdam ones have this please?

thanks again for all help, I appreciate it.

Ivo your 'ball' shaped vase is lovely. :mrgreen:

Sorry unable to answer that until the next time I unpack one of these vases; all Leerdam is in storage and my photographs do not show if the casing is clear or amber.
