Title: Red long necked bottle Gullaskruf type and age ? but triangular and rough
Post by: px on April 08, 2010, 09:36:37 AM

This is from a friends childhood home so it must be from around 60's.
It is 41,5cm high and otherwise kind of like the famous Gullaskruf A.Percy bottle but blown into a triangular mould, I think, with rough sides and the pontil mark having been cleared so theres a little matt area in the bottom. It is not symmetrical at all, either.

I have no idea from where in the world this could be from, the family have traveled a lot I think and had international contacts already by that time.
Would be nice to know tho'. This friend wanted to get rid of this and was about to sell it on a fleamarket 25 years ago and I bought it from her as I liked it. It is actually the first beautiful glass item I ever bought. Actually I think this friend wouldn't mind getting it back now, but...  ;)

I have one very much like it - and a kindly soul identified it for me as  V. Nason, Murano from the sixties.

A happy coincidence for me you have one too, and I am very happy to get that information, Ivo. :)
I suppose it is also worth more than the 20mk (abt 3,50EUR) I paid bona fides for it in 1984...and I'll be a good person not to tell my friend what she sold me back then.   ;D
