Orrefors Ballerina Vase - circa - 1980
dtnflyrfan:
A number of years ago my wife found an Orrefors vase with a ballerina etched on one side looking into her mirror reflection on the other. It was at a Jaccard's jewlery store in Dayton Ohio. Being rather pricey at the time she didn't buy it and I have trid to find it since - too no avail.
Our 25th Anniversary is approaching and I'm at it once again.
Any information would be appreciated. I don't even know the piece's name or who designed it. I'm 90% sure it was Orrefors.
Many thanks.

I've had a look for your vase Dtnflyrfan, but haven't come up with anything, but I'm just letting you know we've seen your question. :wink: Sometimes it takes a little while to get an answer, especially if it's something specific. :) Hopefully someone will be able to help you soon.
It sounds like a romantic idea you have, what a lovely hubby you are! :D

Probably not what you meant, seen date 1980, as this is older. A leerdam vase with ballerina also exported to the U.S, as I have only seen them on EbayUS a couple of times in the past . Could be mistaken for Orrefors as well.
If not what you are looking for, probably nice alternative?
Good luck finding,
Glasshypo

Glasshypo, I agree the vase you found certainly resembles Orrefors and, truthfully, I'm not 100% certain the vase I'm looking for is Orrefors. The depicted scene, however, on the vase I seek shows a ballerina at a ballet barre stretching. Her reflection is seen in the mirror on the opposite side of the vase. Hope that helps.
Thank you for taking the time to look. I just learned of this forum yesterday and am quite hopeful it will lead to the elusive vase :D

Can anyone help this gentleman? I said I'd bump it up for him if he wasn't lucky. Is Bill available for comment perhaps?
It'd be nice to help this chap with his romantic gesture. :)
