Pressed Glass Ice Bucket - Scandinavian??
« on: August 29, 2012, 07:04:40 PM »
I am completely out of my comfort zone on this one, but this strikes me as something. I looked up Tapio Wirkkala and this pattern, except for the foot of the ice bucket, seems to resemble Ultima Thule glassware. It is likely a knock off, or something completely different. I am hoping that some of the oh so wise ones here in this field will be able to identify it for me.

It stands approx 7 inches tall and is 9.25 x 8.75 inches at the mouth. Nicely done and certainly looks like a quality piece.... Help Please.....

Sorry about the pic... taken with my phone in my office......

TIA  Craig

The shape is based on the Randi bowl by Gullaskruf but the pattern is not  - perhaps Oberglas?

Sorry. Deleted comment as it was a wrong identification.
