Title: Artist Signature identification on Dansk 3 sided vase
Post by: Brandonio on January 10, 2016, 06:23:08 PM
Hello Glass experts!
I'm hoping you can help me identify the artist who created this 3 sided swirled vase, Produced by Dansk. It's signed by the artist.

Thanks for your help!

Hello Brandonio and welcome to the board.  Your image is quite bright which makes it hard to see the signature, but the original designer for Dansk was Jens Quistgaard, you can read a summary of him here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jens_Quistgaard and one about Dansk here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dansk_International_Designs.

Thanks Anne! Yes, I'm very aware of Jens. I'm afraid it's just a difficult autograph to read PERIOD. Here's a different photo. Looks like maybe "Saul" "Frank" and S name and a F name...

Thanks for adding the new image, that's much clearer to see...  someone may be able to identify it for you now... it's not one I am familiar with, sorry, as it's not my area of collecting. Don't despair though! :)
