Clear Glass Art Deco Vase with Abstract Nude
« on: January 28, 2012, 11:17:08 PM »
Hello.  This vase is approximately 10" tall and unmarked.  Any ideas as to the manufacturer?  Thanks

I called this nude when I should have refered to it as an "abstract figure" and while I refer to it as Art Deco, I am clueless which is why I'm here.  It could easily be midcentury.  I just thought deco from the lines of the vase and the figure sort of reminds me of a harlequin for some reason. Again, any thoughts would be appreciated.  Thanks

Still looking.  This vase is octagonal shaped and very heavy. Almost 5 pounds. Pollished bottom.

I posted this on the ebay glass discussion board and got no definitive answer.

Sometimes it can take a bit of time to get an id - (sometimes it can be years).
Not everybody pops in every day, but have patience, we generally get there in the end.

I agree it looks 'Deco'
Looks like a Scandinavian design, although they helpfully signed most of their stuff !
but its somewhere to start searching, Orrefors, Kosta perhaps.
