Happy New Year to all ! I bought this from ebay described as a Murano vase. Looks like Per Lutken High Life glass to me - Do you agree? - but it is enormous. Height 11 1/4 inches or 28.5 cm. Was there a vase made in this range? or a beer glass perhaps? It is too tall to be the wine glass designs as described in Andy McConnells 20 C glass book.
thanks. Jackie. West Oz

"Glass is life" (page 60) shows 4 different sizes of this glass, one definitely looks big enough to be this one.

Thanks Gareth - looking at those pictures it is definitely the Beer glass, not the bud vase. I don't have a copy of glass is life - must look for one.
Thanks again

Hej Jak
Yes, it is a beer glass, do have most of the High Life series on my website if you should need more information on Danish Glassworks in the future.

Hej Jak
Forgot to mention that I have the book "Glass is Life" in English on Ebay at the moment, the last one I have if it should have your interest and a Happy New Year to you too.
