Title: Green Mold Blown Glass Pitcher Vase - ID = Blenko
Post by: dorian_graye on February 04, 2011, 04:06:38 PM

I found this vintage glass pitcher at a charity shop, but I can't identify the maker.  I thought it might be made by Blenko, but I'm not sure.  It measures 9.5" inches.

I have no idea but it reminds me of some Finnish mould blown textured glass although the colour looks a bit too bright.  Maybe have a look through Designlasi and see if it is there perhaps?

WOW! Sorry everyone for my late reply.  I expected to be notified by email if anyone commented on my posts.  Thank you so much for all of your hard work.  Unbelievable!  I really thought this was going to be a mystery item.  All of the web search queries I made were coming up with nothing.  SO happy!  :hiclp:
