CREATORS

* Orrefors Glasshouse (Swedish, est. 1898)  - artist
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.
