Teal-blue footed "Harlekiini"-style vase; Scandi? German?
« on: June 12, 2011, 03:03:59 PM »
Height is appr. 21 cm, fire-polished rim, rather delicate.

The design seems to be heavily "influenced" by Nanny Still's Harlekiini range: http://yle.fi/ecepic/archive/00341/Nanny_Still_Harleki_341097b.jpg
The colour is exactly the same (I am able to compare it next to the real thing ;D -- http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php?topic=40823.0)

Any ideas of age, maker,...?

Thanks!
Michael

I saw a vase here on the fleamarket last week, exactly the same shape (but dark green colour), with a "Oberglas" label -- so I would say we have an ID here!
:rah:
