It's 7 inches long, any clues?

Thanks, Tony

Thanks, very similar in shape, style.  :D

I'm not sure if this shape is typical of many glass makers or not, I think Chance made something similar in shape. But certianly could well be Muurla. Thanks.

The Chance serviette holder was a bent 'square'. But this does seem to be a common Scandi shape see http://www.mantorpglasbruk.se/index2.php
On the home page click on the last item - the light up thingy - then go to page 3

Also very similar in shape, style.

Great site, I've already spotted two things that keep popping up all over the place.  :)

I've seen similar items identified as being by Libochovice and Rosice (1992), just wondering.
