Upsala Ekeby (Sweden)

A very likely designer is Allan Ebeling. He came to UE in 1928 and I've found two references that match your bowl:

...and I'd be happy to post them once the external links restriction is gone.

We have had a beautiful Upsala Ekeby vase  (with label and markings) for years but can't ID artist, and also this one is interesting as it is highly irregular in shape and glazing, not typical of their production pieces.  There is a serrated/notched edge at top, very irregular ridges running the length, and a drippy black glaze along edge... see photos.  As you can see, it is marked with "3013" as well as the Upsala Ekeby signature mark.  I did have one person say they thought it was Ingrid Atterberg, but this doesn't seem right to me...

Any thoughts or insights would be appreciated!

Hi!
Your beautiful vase is made by Vicke Lindstrand. The series is called "Fungo" and was made between 1949 and 1955.

Part of my collection of the series.

I can't find out who the artist is, but I LOVE this little vase. It has the original gold foil label - does anyone know when this label was used?

Hi EBV,
Your vase is designed by Hjördis Oldfors for Upsala Ekeby and was produced between 1956-1958. The series is called Poäng and there exists several pieces in that series.

"Poang" is also the name of IKEA's celebrated bentwood chair, which is now in its 40th year of production. Wondering what they had in common to be given the same name I checked the meaning of the word: "Score" according to the Bing translator - so nothing learnt there then

There's a similar one in this blog post which I assume has the designer's name but I can't read Swedish http://upsala-ekebysamlarna.blogspot.co.uk/2010/11/tema-hjordis-oldfors-del-19-reportaget.html?m=1

Can you help me date this and does anyone know who the maker is with incised Aba?
Jug 14 cm  tall, incised pattern I think

1920's design (I think)

Here is one I picked up, I cant think its from the 1920's as it is in such amazing condition

Hello, I've been unable to identify the marks on this piece. It's quite unusual - the glaze on the inside has a very high sheen - I thought it was glass at first. Any ideas much appreciated. thank you.

Thank you, found it's Vicke Lindstrand :)
