« on: October 15, 2021, 02:47:20 PM »
Hi , this vase is nearly 12” high with a polished pontil and a lot of wear, probably due to it’s heavy weight.It’s mould blown with faint vertical optic lines , any thoughts ? Probably mid century I would have thought thanks .

One possibility is Elfverson and co who had designs made by Strombergshyttan in Sweden.
