We don't list a lot of brown vases, but I love these off-centre vases.  The amber graduates into chocolate, and it's surrounded by lots of heavy, slightly blue-tinted crystal.  It has a dangerous-looking shark-tooth rim.  It was designed around 1955.  Gunner Nylund worked at Stromberg from 1952 to 1975.  The firm closed in 1979, after being sold to Orrefors in 1976.

I also have a taller version listed (1950s 25cm Gunnar Nylund Stromberg shark tooth vase), and what I consider to be a magnificent set of three (Set of 3 Gunnar Nylund-designed Stromberg shark tooth vases). I list this one to provide a slightly cheaper option.

Height: 15cm (6 inches)
Width: 11x4cm

Engraved "Strombergshyttan B873" (?) Condition: very light wear to the base beside from a handful of less than 0.5mm fleabites to the edge of the base, a few light scratches elsewhere (longest 2mm)
