Circa 1960 Gullaskruf (Sweden) Large Bottle Vase by Arthur Percy

SOLD

Designed in 1951 by Arthur Percy for the Swedish glassmaker, Gullaskruf, and in production until 1965 here is a huge bottle vase in a particularly vibrant shade of blue glass.  These came in a number of different colours and sizes - this one, being the largest in the range at a whopping 19in/48cm (we also had for sale the smallest at 9.75in/24.5cm which is now sold - please note that in the last photograph the two vases are shown together and this is the huge vase on the left).  With a bulbous base and an attenuated flared neck this is an impressive item that would look fabulous with other brightly coloured glass of the same period.  Please see all photographs for alternative views and close-ups.
