Vicke Viktor Lindstrand bowls Orrefors
essi:
In the 1932 catalogue your bowl in the unengraved version has an I/D, GU84 -H852.
In the 1933 catalogue your bowl with a figure skater engraved has an I/D H852.
What i thought were cigarette holders are glasses from a decanter set (unengraved) ID/ LUx 137/3.
As far as i know no Sandvik glass was signed.
I think Sandvik glass is very under rated. It was designed by the top Swedish designers of the day. (I have 4 items so far).
Good luck trying to pinpoint the engraver.

Thank you Tim.
I'm not worried about the engraver now. I think the A1 is A1 which would date them to 1935 i.e. designed for the upcoming Olympics.
I think the bowl design maybe Hald then if those numbers are H for Hald? and my engraved version of the bowl is the 'development' of a previous design but this time by Lindstrand i.e. his design idea to add the Olympic designs on them?
I've read conflicting reports of whether Lindstrand engraved or not.
I've bought a little set of the glasses but I'm undecided as to whether they actually might be a Leerdam design rather than an Orrefors one. They are unengraved but have a cut ridged design around them. The shape and foot is very close to a Leerdam item though. Also 1930s.

I bet they are nice looking items.

Ok, I'll post them in the next couple of days. Things are a bit non glass focused here at the moment, but in between searching for other things I just saw these and thought they were interesting. It's been a while since I've seen something a bit different.
Been concentrating on decorating and so obviously 'needed' to have a Malachite and bronze box (not glass but stone malachite) because it's the 'right' green. And then saw these little bowls. They wont go anywhere but they just caught my eye and I didn't remember seeing anything like them before. I may give my son the glasses as shot glasses though.
