Title: Reijmyre Black & White Bird
Post by: Ohio on August 03, 2009, 03:45:54 PM

I originally posted this to the Scandi board, but came up empty so I thought I'd post here. My wife collects glass birds & I picked this one up for her today. Could not find much info on line about this particular one though as to what it is, who may have designed it & date. 5 1/2" in length & 3" diameter in the body. Thought the label might help with a date or range of dates. Sure appreciate any help. Thanks, Ken

Hi,
Tyko Axelsson was known to have design birds for Reijmyre, along with tableware sets.
Apparently, and I think it was Ingela who supplied dates, he joined Reijmyre in 1957.
As you say, very little info, even in Swedish, and only one other topic on GMB relating to him.
