About the Item
Orrefors Signed Art Glass crystal rooster signed Orrefors Expo 211-72 O. Alberius. (Olle Alberius, 1972)
With Orrefors Sweden shield shaped label on bottom front and a very worn Shreve, Crump and Low label on the bottom.

The reference mentions his first Expo piece for Orrefors was 200-72, this one is 211-72.
This piece weighs over 7 pounds (3.2 kg). It measures 8.75'' x 5.5'' x 4''
22.22 by 14 x 10 cm
The 'Expo' items from Orrefors are in a limited edition and often made for exhibitions. They are not unique, but a complete signature on an Expo-item is Orrefors + EXPO + the initial or initials of the designer + number + year. The first Expo-signed item by Olle Alberius is numbered 200-72. (Ref: Kerstin Wickman ed., 1998, Orrefors: Etthundra år av svensk glaskonst, Stockholm: Byggförlaget-Kultur.
