A swirled, nipple-esque bowl & a strange vase
« on: October 28, 2008, 09:49:21 PM »
Two more pieces -

A large and heavy bowl with great texured design.  I can *almost* get somewhere with it but just need some pointers as I keep getting stuck!

Also a tall vase - the top half is sandblasted (?) clear glass, though the photo has given it a strange luminous quality!  I'm not sure if it has a Scandinavian feel to it?  Or if it is just a modern M&S one?!

Call me crazy, but the bowl says Scandinavian to me. Kosta, etc.?

I would have thought Zabkowicze Poland for the bowl... maybe Marcus knows where I only suspect.

Thanks Ivo - have you any further information on these glassworks as the only reference I can find on the internet is a picture on Marcus' website!
