Description

View MCM Orrefors Palmquist Crystal Glass Mid Century Modern Teardrop Vase with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. This is in UNBELIEVEABLE shape for its age, and so gorgeous! His incredible work at Orrefors started in 1928-1971, he passed in 1984. Here's a great opportunity to snatch up this limited piece. Forgive the photos there are no flaws simply poor photography, it needs a good wash. Vintage Mid-Century Modern Orrefors Handblown by Sven Palmquist Crystal Glass Teardrop Etched Vase, Signed & Numbered for Authenticity #3722-111 (he used the P-initial on many of his pieces as his signature).  The pictures do not do this justice, this is thick, very heavy with a  paperweight bottom. It  sparkles in light with wonderful precise etchings displaying a bee and flower. The bee symbolizes wisdom, success, and dedication to hard work and overall it brings good luck for attracting wealth. Estate Sale find from a very special home filled with a massive crystal collection. Condition is Used-Preowned showing minor wear on bottom only, miniscule surface scratches (hard to see), no chips or cracks. This is in UNBELIEVEABLE shape for its age, and so gorgeous!  Amazing that this comes from the 50s (based on the number), looks fresh even today with these modern lines and I prefer to think of the shape as a "raindrop". Rain along with the bee is the beginning of all life, a beautiful sentiment. His incredible work at Orrefors started in 1928-1971, he passed in 1984. Here's a great opportunity to snatch up this limited piece.  Forgive the photos there are no flaws simply poor photography, it needs a good wash.   **Dimensions:   5" Tall     x      3 1/2"  W     x      2"  Depth Please refer to photos for further questions I will be happy to answer any concern.  Buyer pays for return shipping.  Condition: Used.
