Title: Circle pattern 1970's style vase - ID: Riihimäen Lasi, Tamara Aladin 'Rengas'
Post by: Littleblackhen on October 02, 2008, 09:04:27 AM

I bought this vase last week at a car boot sale.  It looks 70's style to me, and I thought it might be a Frank Thrower nipple vase, but when I checked it is not the same at all.

Can anyone id it for me please?

Hi Littleblackhen,

It's Riihimäen Lasi, Finland. A design by Tamara Aladin called Rengas (translates as "Ring"). I'm not sure of the exact dates but early 1970s would be about right.
