Iittala, TS, Candlestick - part of the Vertica range?

(1/3) > >>

Pip:
Hiya, I recently posted a vase on here that was signed TS and I was asking if anyone could confirm if it was by Timo Sarpaneva.  Della very swiftly identified it as the small Iittala 'Vertica' vase by Timo Sarpaneva.  I've now got this candleholder which isn't signed but bears similarities to the vase (although obviously smaller in size and much thicker glass) - I've not been able to find out if the 'Vertica' range included candleholders or not. Any help would be fab - TIA, Pip.

Hi Pip, now I feel obliged to answer even if I don't know anything about Vertica. Somehow the candlestick looks 'too thick'. But, as said, this is a wild guess. Tried anyway.  :wink:

Hi Pip,
Is there nothing here?:

Otherwise leave a message on the posting section of the site, and Marika may well get back to you with an answer.
Regards,
Marcus

Pip:
Many thanks Graphite - I agree, it's much thicker than the vases but the striations and the flared rim are the virtually identical which is what's making me think they might be related.  Marcus, thanks for the link (it's a beautiful site even if I can't understand a single word on it  :cry: ) but I'll contact Marika as per your suggestion and ask if she can help.  Cheers! (It's great to have you back btw).

Graphite:
A reminder, Pip – with Finnish words I am capable of helping... feel free to ask.
