Orrefors engraved vase - designer?

<< < (2/2)

essi:
I suppose this is where it gets tricky. Vike lindstrand designs the vase, someone designs the motif and someone actually cuts the design into the glass.

It's the one I used :)

Strangely this is apparently engraved by Birger Gustavsson also has the B letter at the end of the sequence but dated apparently after the dates given on that list?

and this one:

perhaps they got the initial and name from that list but the dates don't tally?

It could be that the G is missing and it's Bertil Gustavsson as the initials for that engraver are BG
