    Hey folks!

    My recent find that I am struggling to identify. I think it's a stunning vase, but I was surprised not to find anything similar :(
    Super heavy, looks very high quality piece. No signatures or anything, but maybe someone recognizes this one. Reminds me a bit of some Murano vases I've had, but it also looks a bit Scandinavian to me. I did purchase it last week in an antique shop in Sweden.
    Height approx. 17 cm (6.7 inches).

    Thanks in advance for any input and Happy Holiday season :)

    Erik

    Agreed ...stunning. I'd definitely look at Scandinavian makers first being that you found it in Sweden.

    Kosta Boda did a line of glass bowls that had this kind of color swirling through them - or at least reminiscent of it. EDIT to add - also apparently they made some similar looking six sided vases - although I'm not finding any examples with the colored swirls right off.

    EDIT again - the Kosta Boda bowl is called Atoll - and it's a candle holder/votive.

    The only glassmaker I could find that made hexagonal vases is Alessandro Mandruzzato. Though, I only found solid colored examples.

    First thought too. The precise shape. I have a Mandruzzato green Sommerso, that is a dead ringer for this shape... was thinking does that mean Italian? But I've never seen one with swirling colors . Following this thread!
