Signed 36cm Vicke Lindstrand 1950s spiral Kosta bowl

Merry Christmas to all our customers and friends. It's Christmas day and as my kids woke me two hours before my alarm would have, I have time to list a piece of glass - something I didn't have time for on Christmas eve. The Italians call the tec...

Blue signed Landberg 1950s Orrefors sommerso vase

This Nils Landberg design is the sort of simple piece which is still being made and sold by other manufacturers. You might find something similar from China in a gift shop, for example. The reasons ours is better, in my view, are: 1. It's handm...

Bohemia Glassworks 1960s labelled Czech figurine of nude

Time for a Czech figurine. This has two labels, one telling us it was made in Czechoslovakia, the other, apparently, from an Italian retailer. We bought it from a seller in the USA. The Czech label tells us that it was made by Bohemia Glasswork...

Labelled Crystalex Czechoslovakian art glass bowl with gold inclusions

I haven't listed a bowl for a while.  This one has gold inclusions in both the grooved rim and in the dark brown/black inner part of the bowl.  We don't see a lot of gold in Czech glass from the communist era, so this, on it's own, (igno...

Signed and labelled 1970s Stromberg moulded vase

If you look at the other Stromberg pieces on our site you'll see we generally seek out their sommerso (coloured glass with a thick clear layer). However, the flowing design of this one took my colleague, Pernilla's eye, and rightly so; it's a ver...

1960s Lindstrand Kosta off-centre sommerso vase with vertical lines

As I said in the previous listing, a couple of months ago, a customer asked us to find him a tall Scandinavian vase from the 1940s or 50s. We really enjoy such requests, and here, while there were a few criteria that ruled out pieces we would hav...
