Alvar AAlto style green studio glass vase help please.
« on: March 19, 2014, 08:57:03 PM »
I have no idea about this at all it but i have to put something in the title, it reminds me of an Alvar Aalto vase. It has a nicely polished rim and lots of bubbles within the glass and it's very heavy.

It's 8 1/2 inches in length and 5 1/2 inches in height and the glass is 8mm thick in places.

Regards Chris.

I had one similar years ago, and remember it was ID'ed as Italian. Can't even remember if it was posted on GMB, but it did look similar to yours.
