Scandinavian I think.
Bo Borgstrom for Aseda.
or is it by Börne Augustsson for Aseda ???
"Börne Augustsson, like his father, began to work with glass at early age. He was 11 years old when he started to work at the Sandvik glass factory. Thereafter he moved and worked for a short amount of time at the glass factory in Åseda.
Later on he replaced his father as master at the Sandvik factory in 1948.
Bottle, designed and manufactured by Börne Augustsson at Åseda Glassworks in 1948. The series is also named after him."

Thank you Vetraio for the positive I.D. I've taken a look around already and found a few other examples of the Decanter, albeit, not in the same colors. I'm very happy that it is, what it is. I can't thank you enough. Dean.
You're welcome, DEANO !!!!
Beautiful color:)
Thank you Vetraio50, Swfinluv1, Fortapache, Ivonne, Sklo42, Antiquerose, Brunswick, Vintageforever, Melaniej, Trey, Nutsabotas6 and Aura for the "Love it" clicks. Very much appreciated. thanks.
I'm happy to see this - I love these.
They seem to often be incorrectly attributed to Borgstrom but of course Vet got it right!
Thanks Karen, you know how I am about green, I love it already. I did some digging last night, and I found an article about these type vases. In the article, the author said that same thing you said. He had been initially told that his was a Borgstrom, he was quick to state that the true artist is Augustsson. Glad you like it. Thanks.
Thanks for the Love, Trey. The green color is very rich. Thanks dude.
stunning !!! wow a great find!! love the shape and color!!
