Title: New Quiz Who am I ?
Post by: mhgcgolfclub on June 27, 2022, 07:23:20 PM
Bought at a Car boot yesterday 2 hours in so nobody really fighting for it. Paid £2.50 for it.

Just over 9" in height and weighs 980gm.
So who am I ?

Thanks m I do not think it's Jiri.
To make it a little bit easier looking more for the glassworks and country rather than the artist as the vase is not signed by the artist  , only glassworks country and date..

I have seen these colours together in Hadeland.

Post by: mhgcgolfclub on June 30, 2022, 05:51:58 PM
Not Blenko or Hadeland.

Wrong country.
Couple of clues a nearby country to Boda and Hadeland. The vase is dated 1996  and the Glass works are known for there glass birds.

Nuutajarvi Notsjo or Iittala if more recent I assume? Would never have guessed.

The vase cost £2.50 and was bought from the couple who bought it new from the shop in Finland.

Thanks everyone for hopefully a good quiz.

PS Vases do not seem to be there thing, not sure if it was a one off or just one of a few.
