Title: Little blue duck - Scandinavian?
Post by: josordoni on February 15, 2007, 11:22:08 AM

This little duck was bought with three pieces of blue Scandinavian glass, one Kosta bowl and two Per Lutken Holmegaard vases.  These pieces are all signed, but the duck isn't.

Do you think he is Scandinavian as well? The icey blue looks rather un-Italian to me.

Did I see one of these labelled 'Bohemia Glass' somewhere, or is that just a figment of my imagination?

Can't help with identification, but this ducky seems to have at least one friend:  :D

I am sure he would be amongst friends in the unknown section of the zoo, until his labelled relatives arrive. Bigger pic if possible Lynne  :)

I'll send you the originals today Frank, and I'll trawl through some of my older pics too.
