vintage beauty

so this past sunday i was hanging around with the little one trying to get a nap out of her and while on the rocking chair i caught an episode of antiques roadshow on the BBC. sometimes i feel like i live in a box because how could i have not known about these amazing glass vases i was seeing on the tube. This man had collected about a dozen of these vintage Holmegaard creations dating around the 60's and 70's. Bright blues and eye popping reds, still in perfect condition...lets just say i had to pick my jaw off the floor with that eye candy!
so if you want to do a little research like i did, you can go on ebay and search out "vintage scandinavian glassworks" or even go on holmegaards website and read up on their history, it's quite impressive to say the least!
