Post by: I love all Glass on May 31, 2015, 04:41:55 PM

Hello out there, I bought these dessert bowls(set of four), they are textured on outside with abstract geometric design, they have a knop like the Iittala Festio range(three sided knop), any ideas as to maker, thanks in advance.  Simon

Made by Bjorkshult.

Here is a decanter in the same design with a label: http://thescandinaviangroup.com/art-glass/large-figurative-art-glass-decanter-designed-lars-bergsten-bjorkshult-sweden-c-1960s/

I have set an ID in the title and moved this to the Scandinavian forum, but only on the basis of the design (patterning) being "of the same style".

Unfortunately the photos of the linked decanter do not seem very clear with respect the the actual patterning, and I think it differs in detail from the bowl.

We have had these glasses on the message board before (I also have two) and I thought they were Bjorkshult but now I can't remember why!

Ah, ok.

Maybe I was a bit quick with the ID addition!

Let's give it a day or two. Maybe this thread could be merged (with removal of my comments) with the earlier one.
