    The green glaze of this piece really caught my eye, but I can't find anything like it with an on-line search. I didn't measure it but it about 8" to the side & about 6" across the top. Hopefully Brad will pop in because he is the first person I thought of & wished I had his phone number because I would have been sending pictures this afternoon. ;):happy::happy:

    Did you look for Arabia items? That text (font) seems to match a few of their inkstamps.

    I have a pdf file that has the Arabia marks history, but I can't figure out how to attach it to the board.

    EDIT: If you can't view the PDF, let me know. I'll try to convert it to a photo file, and attach it that way. Or something else that will attach. :)

    Converted, just in case:
    (I don't remember where I got this, or else I would give credit to whoever created it.)

    I don't know anything about Finnish pottery. I do know I like it!

    I found two of these vases in different glaze colors than yours bercrystal. Both are listed as 1930-ish. Good key words for you to be able to dig up more info.
