Signed sommerso Stromberg vase with engraved design

We've just sold a number of Stromberg pieces to someone whose collection is focused around the work of that firm. We have a lot of pieces in stock which haven't yet made it to the website, and this was one that we offered him. (The fortunate thing is that unlike most other businesses, our stock appreciates over time.) Engraving isn't his thing so ultimately he turned it down. I know what he means - there are a lot of 1930s Swedish vases with butterflies and angelic looking children and nudes which don't do much for me (even the Lindstrand designs) - but I like this design. It looks vaguely like a flower, but then you look closer and see that it has a V-shaped piece out of each "petal". It's not a picture, it's a design.

If, like this customer, you have an interest in the work of a particular Scandinavian firm, feel free to ask about our unlisted pieces. Now that we've moved to selling mainly off our website (rather than the auction sites we started on) we're focusing on our systems to ensure that we can manage our sales properly, and give good service to our customers. Ross, our technical wizard, has for the last few months been furiously adding features to the website and writing the systems code to ensure that our processes will help us to give top-notch service to our customers. Until we reach that point we'd be embarrassed if we got a huge flood of sales (but don't let that put you off buying).
