Kosta Boda Decorative Objects

Swedish

Sweden’s oldest glass company, Kosta Boda, also enjoys a reputation as the country’s most artistic and experimental glassmaker. Since the late 19th century, Kosta Boda has hired painters, sculptors and other artists for short stints — generally two or three years — designing glassware, ensuring that the firm’s aesthetic is always lively and fresh.

Two former army officers founded Kosta Boda in 1742 in Sweden’s densely forested Småland province. (Plentiful timber was needed as fuel for the melting furnaces.) The glassworks’ early products consisted of everyday glassware, such as drinking vessels and windowpanes. As the company recruited master craftsmen from Bohemia, it created fine crystal for an aristocratic clientele.

Kosta Boda began making art glass — that is, unique and limited edition pieces — with the hiring of the painter Gunnar Wennerberg in 1898. Wennerberg worked in the Art Nouveau style and brought a lush, organic look to the company’s wares. He was followed to the firm by artists such as Edvin Ollers, who in the early 20th century created rich geometric and abstract floral patterns that were engraved on clear crystal.

Two postwar Kosta Boda designers stand foremost in the minds of collectors. One is Vicke Lindstrand, who excelled at a technique called cased glass, in which a vividly colored or patterned section of glass is surrounded by and seems to float within a clear crystal body. The other is Erik Höglund, who had an almost artisanal eye for glass shapes, and liked to produce glass that had a textured, warped look.

Kosta Boda created works in an astonishing array of styles, with something to suit any taste.

Bertil Vallien for Kosta Boda “Rainbow” Art Glass Vase, Sweden, circa 1980s

By Kosta Boda, Bertil Vallien

Located in MAASTRICHT, LI

Description Striking Scandinavian art glass vase designed by Bertil Vallien for Kosta Boda, Sweden. This model belongs to Vallien’s well-known “Rainbow” series, characterized by delicate vertical trails of colored glass—blue, yellow, and red—suspended within a softly frosted white ground. The cylindrical form is simple and architectural, allowing the vibrant linear decoration to take center stage. The organic flow of the colored inclusions adds movement and a subtle handmade character, typical of Vallien’s studio-oriented approach during this period. Signed to the underside “Kosta Boda B Vallien 48226”. A refined and recognizable example of Swedish studio glass...

"Callisto Myth" Crystal Vases

By Kosta Boda

Located in New York, NY

Exquisitely hand-carved, this pair depicts a Greek legend. Zeus fell in love with the huntress Callisto, and she bore him a son named Arcas. In a fit of jealous rage, Zeus's wife turned Callisto into a bear. Time passed, and one day Arcas was out hunting. How was he to know that the bear he was stalking was his own mother?! On seeing that Callisto's life was in danger, Zeus whisked her up into the night sky out of harm's way. She can still be seen in the constellation Ursa Major, the Great Bear.
