Am fairly certain it's not Dartington (we've been through the Mark Hill/Eve Thrower book and it's not in there) - it's not in either of the Pina Scandi glass books either. It's a nice decanter and the stopper is rather elegant however I don't recognise it unfortunately.

The decanter is Sven Palmqvist for Orrefors, 1959. The design is called 'Rhapsody', and is form number PS1850.

Nice find!

I find it quite architectural in design
