Having been trained at the National College of Art, Craft & Design in Stockholm, Lundin helped foster a new age with international attention on Swedish art glass. Lundin was in charge of the manufactory’s Ariel glass production from 1957 to 1971. Her Ariel work is known for combining geometric shapes like circles, rhombuses and squares with translucent color, usually blue, green, or yellow. Lundin designed the important Apple vase in 1957. * Orrefors Glasshouse (Swedish, est. 1898) - manufacturer Established in 1898 in the Swedish region, Småland, Orrefors became the most prominent producer of Swedish modern art glass in the 20th century. At the height of Orrefors’s popularity in the 1930s through 1960s, the firm’s designers boasted prestigious awards from many world’s fairs. The firm is associated with the development of the Graal and Ariel glass techniques, both considered distinctly Swedish styles of art glass. Since 1997, the firm has operated under the Danish design manufacturer, Royal Scandinavia. The Småland-based manufacturer closed in 2013. --- measurements: Overall: 12.7 x 16.9 cm (5 x 6 5/8 in.) state of the work: edition of the work: support materials: inscriptions: --- CURRENT EXHIBITIONS --- LEGACY EXHIBITIONS --- PROVENANCE Purchased from Fisher Bruce & Co. date: footnotes: citations: --- fun fact: digital description: wall description: --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS --- IMAGES
