Kosta Boda - Bertil Vallien & Ulrica Hydman-Vallien designs

Since Bertil and Ulrica were married it makes sense to post their Kosta Boda designs in one thread (even though they designed individually).

Anyway, let's start off with an 'Open Minds' vase designed in 1987 by Ulrica Hydman-Vallien for Kosta Boda.

Here's a tiny little bud vase designed by Bertil Vallien (fully signed) - not sure of the design date but would presume it's sometime from the mid-80s onward (if anyone knows more info about this vase please post in this thread).

When we first got it we presumed it was a perfume bottle missing it's stopper - however a Swedish glass specialist assures me that it didn't have a stopper and is in fact a tiny vase.
