Is this Scandinavian glass?
« on: March 22, 2011, 12:32:18 PM »
These two pieces of glass seem to be from the same factory,  one has a mark on the base but I'm unable to read it. Any pointers as to where I should start looking please?  :thud:





cheers steph

A close-up of the mark would be good.

Erik Höglund springs to mind, Steph.

Pic of the mark if possible :-)

 :ooh:  I'm so nervous ... all this stuff with photo's gives me the colly wobbles!  I feel like I'm on ice skates...still here goes I've tried to get a shot of the marks on the green one.

It really is too difficult to read from the pic, but it is  H356/160  The grey one is unmarked.  Hope this helps.

The H mark is an Erik Hoglund mark I believe.  Can you get a side on view of both pieces please?  I am curious about the one that isn't marked as well.
Really gorgeous vases  :mrgreen:
