<p>[QUOTE="AntiqueHunter, post: 9608140, member: 84182"]Thanks once again, and indeed, it is the only point of reference I have, besides the price of my purchase (which they had valued without any product-specific knowledge, just mere intuition). While antiquities and most other things were expensive in the late 70s Norway, it wasn't nearly as expensive as in the present when compared to the cost of living of nations with similar economic status. The notes from the 1977 sale only mention the mineral used and that it is handcrafted, nothing else - which makes me believe the valuation back then lacked product-specific knowledge/background. Otherwise, the "type" or "origin" of the vase would've probably been mentioned.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
