FM Konstglas is a largely undiscovered and underrated firm.  I love the pattern in this piece.  It lends itself to designs requiring the look of feathers or scales.  Look at the close-ups and you'll see it's made of intricate layers and folds, all full of tiny bubbles.  It was a feature of the work of the Marcolin brothers and their colleagues, Murano-trained Italians who set up a furnace in Ronneby, Sweden in the 1960s and called the firm FM Konstglas.  "FM" stands for Fare Marcolin.  In general, their earlier pieces were unsigned.
