Your pictures are very small, which makes it quite a challenge to see any detail on your pieces.  You can have up to 125kb each, but are only using 12 to 50kb.  From what I can see, the quality does not appear to be there for Orrefors.

Good morning

I go with cat, not Orrefors, I have a couple of catalogues and books, no sign from this candlestick holders, and not clear enough for Orrefors. From the apperance of the glass I would say Pukeberg, but I couldnīt find anything matching.

not very helpful, Iīm sorry for that, but i also think scandinavia.

There is a short time when self-editing of posts is permiited ... 1 hour. This is restricted for technical reasons for the smooth running of the Board.

Adding further images can be done by simply making a reply to your own thread, allowing up to 4 more photos to be posted.

Basics for adding pics and resizing to fit Board requirements are given in separate topics under the Information, Help & Announcements forum:

That's so much easier to see - thank you.  Have you considered Blenko?

good call as far as the look of the glass goes - it has that "solid water" feel that blenko has, where it's not flawless and solid, but almost textured within.

had a google around and couldn't find a blenko shape to match, though.
