Title: czechoslovakian or Scandinavian
Post by: Paul S. on March 25, 2009, 08:30:32 PM

these two appear to be decanters - charity shop purchase which I couldn't resist, and got so carried away that I didn't see the matt ground insides of the necks, and came away without asking for the stoppers.    I thought Czechoslovakian, but I only have Mark Hill's book, and I can't see them there,  and then someone said Scandinavian so now I'm not sure, and grateful for any help.
details are: 17 cms. high  -  11 cms. at the sidest part  -- very heavy for size, and with flat polished and un-signed bases.      the most distinctive feature is that at the shoulder area it is almost as tho the necks have been added separately  -  there is a thin incised irregular line creating a kind of join line right round the body.     Many thanks           Paul.

thank you very much Max  -  Swedish after all then.     Rather incomplete without the stoppers tho  -  how about using them as door stops!!

cheers           Paul.
