Ballerina etched/engraved vase ~ Scandinavian? American?
« on: February 19, 2012, 06:01:34 PM »
Hi. I picked this vase up recently and I'm struggling to identify the maker and decipher the base marks. The stylised H on the base reminds me of some Holmegaard etched marks but the shape doesn't look very Scandinavian to me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

O the style looks very Scandinavian all right - but the bottom marks look dremeled - and do not seem to point at a specific maker
