Title: Bengt Orup
Post by: adam20 on February 13, 2013, 02:47:47 PM

Just bought this 8" vase in clear glass with controlled bubbles. I seem to remember it is by Bengt Orup, can't remember factory or date.

I have searched on net and see stickered versions of these for Johansfors. Anyone agree? It's not a good photo, the bubbles are more prevalent.

It looks like it could be a Orup design for Johansfors. I've seen Orup pieces for Johnasfors marked with an acid etch, diamond point, or with just a label, so no signature on the piece certainly doesn't rule out Johansfors and Orup. If you've seen a stickered version, then I'd go with the attribution. Here's a similar piece I have with only a label on it.
