Iittala (Finland) Large 'Savoy' Vase by Alvar Aalto
This is from Iittala/Riihimaki Riihimaen/Lasi Oy Glass
|
|
|
A large clear glass 'Savoy' vase designed originally in 1936 by Alvar Aalto for Iittala (Finland) and still in production today. These are fabulous pieces of design - a curvy shape way ahead of it's time, made from thick clear glass - fabulous! We can't be certain of the production date of this piece but would suggest that since it bears a plastic 'Iittala' manufacturer's sticker it's most likely to be from sometime in the last 20 years or thereabouts. Acid etched with the designers name to the inside of the base - see photos.
SIZE: Height 6.25in/15.5cm Weight 1380g
CONDITION: Really nice, clean and original - no chips, cracks or fleabites.

Pair of 1950s/1960s Scandinavian Glass Stemmed Bud Vases
This is from Other Scandinavian Glass
|
|
|
|
I think these are very stylish vases indeed. We have a pair - one in dark blue and the other in a smokey olive green glass dating we think to sometime in the 1950s/60s. We've not yet been able to identify the designer but think most likely from one of the Scandinavian factories - certainly the colours and welled base features are pointing us in that direction. Whoever made them there's no denying they're stylish, decorative and beautifully made.
SIZE: Height 9in/23.5cm
CONDITION: Lovely original undamaged condition - light surface wear.

1970s Scandinavian Large Blue Hooped Glass Vase
This is from Other Scandinavian Glass
|
|
|
|
I absolutely adore this vase - it's impressively tall; is made from a thick dark blue coloured glass; has a brilliant retro hooped shape and just oozes quality. We've not been able to identify the factory or designer yet however our hunch is that it's very likely to be Scandinavian in origin. It's a really funky and highly decorative original item.
SIZE: Height 11in/28cm
CONDITION: Gorgeous original undamaged condition.

1966 Whitefriars Glass Large Ceramic Trailed Vase in Shadow Green (Pattern 9637)
This is from Whitefriars Glass
|
|
|
|
CONDITION: Good original condition with no damage. There is a degree of surface scratching to the outside and inside there's what looks at first inspection to be a triangular shaped burst bubble (not visible from the outside) but which I suspect is more likely to be an anomaly caused by the tongs during manufacture. This has been reflected in the price however.
