Swedish sommerso pinstripe vase

This is a nice example of a good-sized pinstripe vase. The stripes have a stylish twist. It's unsigned and hard to identify - our guess was Afors.

Pina and Vigier in Scandinavian Glass 1930-2000: Fire & Sea, point out that:

"Many Swedish companies utilized this pinstripe technique during the 1950s and 1960s. Examples by Kosta are easy to identify because those pieces are usually signed and were created by Vicke Lindstrand. Identification of pieces by other companies is more difficult because they were often only labeled, and not signed. Some of the companies that used this technique are Sea Glasbruk (sometimes signed), Glimma Glasbruck, Smalandshyttan, Skruf, and Johansfors."

The Lindstrands are superior, for design and, generally, quality of manufacture, but the others are considerably cheaper!
