Hi all,
I bought these last week, I thought they were Swedish but I am having trouble identifying them,
does anyone know what they are and who made them??
thanks in advance

Side-on shots and base shots against a plain white background would be useful.
-
thanks, two ticks :)
-
they are 6 inches tall and 4 1/2 inches across

There is a company here which does something very similar. They buy standard footed glasses in Poland and here they cut them diagonally, then sell them on to the florist trade.
-
bases are approx 2 inches across
-
thanks Ivo, do you think that these are for flowers then?
-
oh yes, single flower displays - a rose, an aucuba leaf and a sprig of grass in some florist foam - cheap and cheerful.

thanks for your help, we bought them for our 60's teak unit, we thought they looked quite funky :)

Hi Dorry, are you UK N.E. by any chance ? 3 glasses the same up here. Unusual and I could not figure them out but 'Funky' suits them well. ;D
-
Hi pete, yep in the uk. The man who we bought them from said they were a set of 3, but we only have these 2. He said they were 1930's? Like u just can't figure them out. We have bought a old 1960's wall unit and thought they may go well on there??

The flower theory looks like it would work. One of those, in my words only, Arty type flower arrangement. Large flower in it with the, excuse my ignorance lol, thin green grass types going outside the glass. (Jeez...I need to get out more !!!)
