Holmegaard ? Tall cased lightgreen and white.
« on: March 04, 2011, 09:59:41 PM »
Hi

I found this on my travels today? I think a very Scandinavian piece, Very tall at 12.5" and weight, a good 1kg
I think the colour is either a pale green or a pale amber, I am really not sure. I have seen a similar colour used by lindshammer on their bottles but this has something more to the style of the vase. The pontil is ground and smoothed with a slight dip, The white casing to the base looks really clean and crisp, with a slighty slant. Going up from the tapered base you reach a huge bowl and the white on the inside of the bowl is a good colour and on the lip once again it is rather crisp, with a slight overlap. 

I more I look the more I want to see holmegaard or Nuutajarvi, I have search the amazing www.designlasi.com and have seen similar designs in other forms of glass.

I'd love hear members views , Many thanks
