Title: Scandinavian Hobnail Vase? ID = Flygsfors
Post by: Alton11 on April 02, 2013, 12:01:32 AM

Was told this was made in 1955? and was either Swedish or Czech. With such a broad attribution, was hoping someone here might recognize. Also, forgive me if in the wrong section .....was puzzled at where to start. Stands 6 1/4 inches high, is cased with a white interior, and fades from an almost flourescent green to a nearly black/green towards the bottom.  Base is polished and extremely concave. Thnx for looking.

Thanx so much. I would not have guessed Flygsfors in a million years

Me neither. A date of around 1955 would tie in nicely too.
