I would like to show some of the many pieces that i have acquired from a recycling centre(the "dump" as we call it)in New Zealand.Most of these have been taken there to be disposed of,never to been seen again.Luckily the centre sorts through them and puts them up for sale at ridiculously low prices.Also a few of the pieces are from a local internet auction site.
My collection is mainly of Hoglund Glass(Ola) and Isle of Wight but in the last few years started to collect Scandinavian glass,a long time overdue.
Cheers Paul.
For real? Dumped? Fantastic finds and I am so glad they have been saved.
So many treasures here - are they Kosta Boda in blue at the front, left and centre, and a Toikka white bird?
What's the blue bird do you know? Love the Riihimaki and iittala BIG candlesticks.
That Hadeland cheese bell is awesome, I have one in a box here (I think).
These need some individual posts, and I would love to see your IOW and Hogland too.
I'm excited!!
OMG!
A Willy Johansson Bullet vase thats NZ$800 easy
Hi racer4four &kisslikeether,thank you for looking at my finds.The blue & white vase is by a rather unknown artist sjalaglas.The blue bowl to the right of the Nuutajarvi bird is Boda designed by Vallien and next to that again Boda by Erik Hoglund.The blue bird is by Iittala called Cool Joe by Anu Pentinnen.The candleholders are great and i have their boxes too.They have Sarpaneva signature on both.
The Hadeland cheese bell is stunning also and unbelievably has no damage or scratches.I saw it come into the recycling centre and they just dumped in onto the top of a caged trailer to take it to the sales shop.
I will try and put up some photos of my other collections.
I bought the Rocket vase and tall purple vase together and they are both signed with his initials,really happy about that.
Thanks again for looking,Paul.
great collection and finds!!
Hi Sean,thanks for that.I do also have 10 others pieces which couldn`t fit on the table for the photo plus quite a few drinking glasses including a pair of Nuutajarvi Herttu beer glasses.Cheers again for looking.
