Gullaskruf (Sweden) - Arthur Percy designs
by Pip on Sat Jun 06, 2009 8:56 pm
Bottle vases designed in 1951 by Arthur Percy for the Swedish glasshouse Gullaskruf - in production until 1965. They came in a number of different colours and sizes - shown here together are the largest and the smallest in the range.

There are a lot of very good looking reproductions made in Poland. It is really difficult to spot the fakes once the stickers are removed.

Not in the flesh - the base and rim finishes on the originals are very different from modern repros - as are the colours.
