Title: Help w/ Mid Century ? Vase Leerdam Murano Vibe Argh!
Post by: snesbit on July 26, 2021, 04:14:31 PM

Picked this up at a house sale this week.  Oblong, quad lobed form 13" tall, 5 1/2" wide at the base, 5" across the top rim.  Shorter dimensions 4 1/2" at the base, 3" at the rim.  Thick walled (3/8" at the top rim) clear with amethyst stripe wrap.  The base is well done (not Chinese-y) with polished feet and a recessed polished circular pontil mark.  Some appropriate fine contact wear on the feet.  I was getting a more Scandi vibe than Murano, but what do I know.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Shawn

I'm in the US on the east coast, so maybe an Erickson-ish / Tiffin Modern-ish thing.

I double checked Tiffin and Erickson, nothing like this.

It gives me a bit of a Tarnowiec vibe, but I cannot find this shape in their work. Poland.

Hi Sue,

Thanks so much for the reply and your input.

It just may be one of those that has to sit on the shelf for awhile / years :) until I get lucky.
