Title: Turquoise Blue oval eye shaped glass vase, modern ?
Post by: allkindsofglass on February 10, 2013, 06:54:04 PM

Turquoise Blue oval eye shaped glass vase, modern ?
The measurements are
20 cm Tall x  15 cm wide x 8 cm deep
The lines run vertical on one side of the glass and horizontal on the opposite side giving the impression of squares when looking through it.
The base is clear, solid and it weighs 1.7 kg
Can anyone tell me the maker please ?

Not 100% certain but looks like a variation on a well known Krosno vase. At 1.7 kilos it would probably be - they tended to go in for heavvy.

These have been on the board several times before, they come in different colours and at least two sizes. Suggestions have included Lindshammar and Polish but I don't know if there has been a definite id made.

Here is one thread: http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,28593.0.html

I saw one of these at auction listed as a murano sommerso ''modernist'' vase and it did very very well indeed, poor winning bidder :o
