Is this an Erickson bud vase?
« on: January 31, 2009, 09:04:59 AM »
This unusually large bud vase stands 34 cm (13.5") tall, and is very heavy, weighing nearly a kilo. It has a thick freeform top and just a few bubbles in the stem.  The bubbles in the heavy base are different sizes and shapes but arranged in a pattern.  It has not been signed and there is no sticker but I think it looks like some controlled bubble 2 tone bud vases I have seen made by Carl Erickson.  I would love someone to either confirm this or offer other information as to the origin and age of this vase.  Thanks again!   Pat

No your vase is not Erickson of Bremen, Ohio. 99% of this type of vase advertised as Erickson are not although I have seen a couple with an Erickson of Sweden labels. Many of these are European or Japanese.
