Topic: Per Lutken Ducking or Beak Vase

[Ming]

Is this Per Lutken Mould-blown Naebvase(Ducking or Beak Vase)? The bubbles pattern almost the same but the shape of the mouth is not quite right. The vase is not signed .

Per Lutken never designed beak vases with bubbles in them, nor with cased colours - the ones that do have bubbles and cased colours, and are frequently mis-attributed to Holmegaard, were made by Kastrup Glas between 1960-65.

However, your vase was made by neither of the glassworks. No idea who did make it, sorry.

A pineapple mould would have been used to create a controlled pattern of bubbles, but the piece has been free blown, not mould blown. Once on the punty the neck has been stretched which explains the distortion of the bubbles.

This one could be from a number of Swedish makers plus Magnor of Norway.

I agree, Magnor, see item 41

Hej - A bit earlier have a catalogue from Maj 1954 from Kastrup Glasswork with bubbles and in the colours green, blue and pink, shape like photo 30 centimeters high and diameter 9 centimeter, but in the top like a V ending. Kastrup Glasswork did produce in that time many things with bubbles in vases, ashtrays and dishes.

Oh, I didn't realise they went back that far. The dates I gave were those listed on Glashistorisk Selskab, according to the catalogues they had available at the time. I've just had a look, and it seems they've acquired the same catalogues as you, and have since updated their site. 

So here's a link to a Kastrup beaked vase: Kastrup Vase
