Some of my favorite things! I like pairs!
This pair I've had for nearly twenty years. The shape is really strong and the colour of the glaze is a lustre over olive and peacock blue. Lustre pottery has been a long-time passion.
The signature on the bottom of the vases includes an R for Rörstrand and CHS for the designer Carl-Harry Stålhane.
I believe that the SPD mark is the name of the design and that they date from the 1950's.
Stålhane is a legendary Swedish art ceramist, with a more than 40 year long career at Rörstrand pottery before he established his own workshop, Designhuset.
They are approx 5 ins high = 13 cm.
These remind me of some Timo Sarpenava glass that I had .
Hi! You're right about the iridescence. It's there on both of them but works even more on the green one.
Absolutely beautiful!

The form looks to be inspired by classic Chinese "bottle vase" shapes. I was surprised to read these are only 5" tall; they seem to have a more massive presence. The bold monochrome colors are awesome. Overall a remarkable blend of classic form with vibrant, modern color - brilliant!
