Hi All,
More pics of my ever increasing Riihimaki Sun vase collection, please enjoy.
Colors include: Turquoise, Green, Lilac, Purple, Clear, Amber, UV Yellow, Grey-Blue. To many colors to collect!
;)

Oh I love Scandinavian glass.....they are lovely, thank you for sharing them with us GBarfoot. :mrgreen:
-
No worries Rosie, your welcome. I think I have a bit of an obsession with collecting all the color variations!
-
Nice colour selection! :)
Do you have larger sizes too?

Now there's a challenge ;D Just when you thought it was safe only to collect the colours, you now find you have another 20 to purchase ;D
-
20?
At least 40 ;)
-
Hi Robert,
I have a couple of the next size up, although they seem to have become rather expensive these days. Aren't there 4 sizes altogether..? - I think your right there's probably at least another 40! - Probably have to consider remortgaging to acquire all the different variations! I can live in hope! ;D
-
Hi
Yes, 4 sizes, and I think at least one more colour...
I've seen a brown one :)
-
Robert - I know in the small size there are 6 main colors, however there are 17 different shades in total! :o
I don't think that there are as many in the larger sizes. Just the main 6 colours I think.
-
Even more than I thought :o
I collect the green, but often the shades are very different!
-
The Aurinkopullo-club has listed 24 separate shades in small size. :)

I remember having seen this figure in a newspaper article: there are 76 if you collect all known genuine variations...
(some enthusiasts even collect the fakes...)
-
Wow!
Ok.. I have a fake too ;)
The Middle one- Italian, uncased
-
blimey PX that's that a few!! When you say 76, I presume you mean across all 4 sizes..? :o

As a brand new member of this forum, here is a few pics from my Aurinkopullo collection (sizes: 4/4 and 3/4)

Wow! They are all lovely....and welcome to the GMB, valley.....what great photos you have taken as well. I love Scandinavian glass and really must start thinking about vases bottles and bowls, rather than just animals and birds.....now let me see....where could I put them???????????

Rosie, you'll need a bigger house! :ooh:
Greg, Robert and Valley, your collections are lovely, especially lit from behind. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
