Slab or brick vase-who made it?


Standing 250mm (9 3/4 inches) tall x 100mm (4 inches) x 58mm (2 1/4inches) this slab like brick vase is complete unknown to me. On the top are 3 small square holes which I assume are for single stem flowers. Very smooth finish, and lightweight.  It has been suggested it may be Scandinavian, but all my searches have turned up blank.  I can find no makers mark. Condition is superb, there are no chips, cracks or restoration.  Purchased on ebay, just because we like the look of it.

Cornerhouse, we need a shot of the bottom of the piece, even if unmarked.

You might try requesting help at the Fat Lava Forum, which has experts on German, Scandinavian, and other European pottery.

The base of this piece is the same desing/finish as all the other sides, with the patern on all 6 sides.

Have you tried the fat lava site? Or the eBay Pottery, Glass, and Porcelain Discussion Board? I cannot help you with this piece.
