Title: Help to identify glass vase
Post by: jimbo1 on July 31, 2014, 10:56:04 AM

Hi All,

I'm really struggling with this one, vase looks to be Scandinavian and is thick walled but I cant make out the signature. Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards

I recognise the blank as Smalandshyttan but am unable to identify the (independent) engraver.

Thanks Ivo, I made the rookie mistake thinking it was a manufacturers name rather than an independent engraver.

I would suggest it is a Kjellander design on a Kosta Blank - see other Google photos.

Difficult to make the signature read Kjellander though, Kjell something for sure

I'm going with Ross  -  doesn't take too much effort to make Kjellander  ......   the a, d and r look fairly definite.

The only other Kjell was a Blomberg who worked for Gullaskruf, and I'm fairly sure it isn't his name.
