Title: Beautiful Orange Vase - can somebody help identify. ID = Dalian, China
Post by: Beege on February 13, 2020, 06:52:22 PM

Hallo all, I hope you are all well.
I found this delightful vase recently but have been totally unable to identify the maker.
The condition is perfect, its really quite heavy and is 10.5" (26cm) tall.
Does anyone recognise the style/maker?
Thank you.
Jack

Apologies...I misspelled the title of this thread: should have read 'Orange', not 'range'.!

Hello Jack.  Is that a polished Pontil mark on the base?

Hi Cat.

Yes, its difficult to see in my photograph, but there is a small circular pontil which is very smooth and therefore, I suspect, polished.

Jack, your glass has similarities to some of the pieces designed by Arik Levy and produced by Lasvit in the Czech Republic, it might be worth looking at what they do to see if you can find a match. https://howtospendit.ft.com/house-garden/201014-cool-contemporary-vases-from-the-czech-republic

Thank you Anne.
The large pieces of glassware in the link you provided certainly look remarkably similar to mine. I will; investigate further to see whether they produce a frosted version.
Thank you for your help...you are much appreciated.

Hi, looking for something else :) I noticed this:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VINTAGE-AQUAMARINE-DALIAN-GLORY-GLASS-VASE-RETRO-STYLE-CIRCA-1980S/124092272304

Looks the same design (slightly confusing with all the facets) but in frosted aquamarine. More interestingly it still has a paper label - Dalian Glory - so Chinese.

Thats brilliant Ekimp, I think you've solved it.
That looks remarkably like my vase...I would never have guessed Chinese!
Thank you for your help...much appreciated.

You’re welcome, lucky it still had the label!
