Hi EBV,
Your vase is designed by Hjördis Oldfors for Upsala Ekeby and was produced between 1956-1958. The series is called Poäng and there exists several pieces in that series.

"Poang" is also the name of IKEA's celebrated bentwood chair, which is now in its 40th year of production. Wondering what they had in common to be given the same name I checked the meaning of the word: "Score" according to the Bing translator - so nothing learnt there then Shrugs

A little cone shaped bud vase or beaker. Felt ring on the base.
There's a similar one in this blog post which I assume has the designer's name but I can't read Swedish http://upsala-ekebysamlarna.blogspot.co.uk/2010/11/tema-hjordis-oldfors-del-19-reportaget.html?m=1

Hello, I've been unable to identify the marks on this piece. It's quite unusual - the glaze on the inside has a very high sheen - I thought it was glass at first. Any ideas much appreciated. thank you.
