Bengt Orup bowl with metal particles for Hyllinge

Pina and Vigier's invaluable book, Scandinavian Glass 1930-2000: Smoke and Ice, p52, shows a similar-sized Orup piece (a 21cm tall vase) for Johansfors in the same technique which they say was designed around 1967.  They value it at US$800-1000.  Our colleague, Pernilla, has seen the Hyllinge versions before.  Orup worked for Hyllinge in 1963, while also holding down the role of director at Johansfors.  It appears he used this technique for designs for both companies.  I've never sold one of these before so I don't know whether Pina and Vigier's price is accurate.  I picked this up cheaply enough to list it at $470 which those who collect Orup may well find to be a bargain price.
