Title: 2 Tall Long Necked Amethyst Cased Glass Bottle Vases Empoi or Scandinavian?
Post by: Patti3435 on February 01, 2014, 05:49:55 PM

Hi. I believe these are vintage (though if I am wrong, please correct me). 23" and 19" tall. Do you think these are from Italy or Scandinavia? Thanks!

My guess would be fairly contemporary and made in the far east or India.

Oh...thanks John! You think these are contemporary? I felt certain they were vintage but I am now second guessing. What clues are you picking up on? Thanks for looking and helping. Truly appreciated.

The fairly generic shape and quickly finished rims stand out.
