Swedish sommerso pinstripe vase

This is a nice example of a good-sized pinstripe vase. The stripes have a stylish twist. It's unsigned and hard to identify - our guess was Afors. Pina and Vigier in Scandinavian Glass 1930-2000: Fire & Sea, point out that: "Many Swed...

It may be sacrilege to say so but I think I prefer this design to that of the more famous (and more expensive) Flysgsfors "Fantasia" design (see for example, Signed 1957 Flygsfors 4-fingered Fantasia glass art object). Both are a sea an...
