Title: very large heavy vase - ID = Holmegaard, a lamp base
Post by: Mick the fish on February 10, 2022, 04:24:22 PM

I bought this vase recently thought it could be Murano? But the brass rim makes me wonder? Can anyone help to identify it? It's very heavy just under 3kg. measures 12" tall max diameter of the bowl is 9" top opening is 2.5".
Thanks in advance.

Mick

Actually Danish :) - and a lamp base (missing the electric parts)
Holmegaard, designed by Sidse Werner, model "Troll" >> Link (https://www.design-mkt.com/168123-pair-of-vintage-holmegaard-troll-2-lamps-in-iridescent-blue-glass-by-sidse-werner-denmark-1980s.html)

My vase from this range has an engraved HG SW to the base...
