Flygsfors Unsigned ? ID = Chribska
« on: April 13, 2018, 05:37:46 AM »
Hello,

I picked this up yesterday. It's 36cm tall and weighs a ton. It looks like a Flygsfors Paul Kedelv piece but it is unsigned. Does anyone know anything about it?

Welcome to the forum.

Your vase is Czech, made by a company called Chribska, they make this model in varying heights and colours,  yours is a colour variation I have not seen before.

Thanks! Josef Hospodka. I managed to find it. I thought it was Swedish as I live in Sweden and bought it at a car boot sale (loppis), but you can't always assume everything I guess.

I would take Hospodka as designer for this vase with a pinch of salt, he will not have been the only person to design for Chribska.
