Studio glass Vas Vitreum has a long family tradition in freehand art glass. Fourth and fifth generation glass makers are inspired by traditional workmanship and new influences and their own exclusive designs.

says he blurb. It may explain why you can recognise items you knew from Skrdlovice and Iittala, to mention but two. All items seem to be designed by Mikael Kenlind.

In any case, here is the website. Check out the prices, and assume your Orrefors inspired ariel vase is in the same league.

Thank you for the info...am hoping to get a little more on the designer and perhaps a year produced.
Could not find a vase quite like the one pictured on the site you recommended but I did get an idea of cost.
Again thank you,
Tony
