Title: Help With Orrefors and Unknown Signature Identifications
Post by: Redcalamari on September 18, 2023, 08:22:43 PM

Hi my name is Ian, first time poster.

Picked up these at the second hand store for a deal.
The Goran Warff was easy to identify, but the Orrefors looks older and I wanted to know more about the artist and date.
The other clear purple and white vase is unknown and is dated 1986.

Sorry the pics are so compressed, the spam filter wont let me link HQ uploads.

Thank you for your interest and input!

Hi and welcome.

Is the second picture the clear glass vase? And is that signature the whole thing?  I'm asking because on the right there is a C and a number and just wondered if there was more.
 I think P. is for Sven Palmqvist. Perhaps vase designed by him and engraved by someone else? C?

This site confirms the P for Palmqvist and the C8 is for 1960.
