A Sun Bottle in a light green color by Finnish glass designer Helena Tynell. 
This bottle has some very minor, faint signs of use on the inside.

Helena Tynell is best known for her Sun Bottles (also called ‘Flower bottles’) that were produced 1964-1974 at Riihimäen lasi, in Finland.
The bottles were produced in four sizes: (4/4) is the largest, ca 32cm high; (3/4) ca 23cm; (2/4) ca 17cm and (1/4) is the smallest size and is ca 12,5cm high and fits slightly over 2dl of water.
These decorative vintage bottles are popular objects for interior decoration and come in several different colors. There are also clear ones. In the last picture this vase is for comparison photographed together with Sun Bottles of other green nuances.

Helena Tynell designed for Riihimäen lasi in Finland from 1946, and later moved to Germany where she designed for Limburg glass factory from 1976.
In 1986 she moved back to Finland after a long career as glass designer, and in January 2016 she passed away at 97 years of age.
