Freeform Art Glass Vase by Severin Brørby for Hadeland Norway, 1970s

About the Item

Large free-form handkerchief vase in Norwegian art glass. Designed by Severin Brørby and made at Hadeland in Norway circa 1970s. Hadeland Glassverk is the oldest industrial company in Norway that can claim continuous operation since its foundation. The glasswork company was founded in 1762 on land belonging to the Mo estate. Production started in 1765. At the time Norway did not have the necessary skilled craftsmen, and these were recruited from abroad, principally from Germany. Initially, production consisted mainly of bottles, chemists’ jars, medicine bottles, and household items. In 1852 Ole Christian Berg took charge of the glass works and the company underwent dramatic development. Production was redefined to consist of smaller crystal items and included everything from wine glasses to bowls, dishes, and vases. During the 19th century, the glassworks mainly copied designs from other European countries and in the 1920s it started developing its designs.

Mid-Century Willy Johansson Art Glass Vase for Hadeland Norway
By Willy Johansson, Hadeland
Located in Atlanta, GA
This beautiful art glass vase was designed by Willy Johansson (1921 - 1993) for Hadeland Glassverk, Norway. It is smooth to the touch, but the appearance looks heavily textured with ribs and bubbles trapped in glass. From the Atlantic series, this vase has a cylindrical fluted shape in heavy lead crystal clear glass with deep ribbed sides and internal bubbles in the lower half of the vase. Finely flat ground and highly polished top with an overhang style lip, this art-glass has a nice modernist flair. The vase is signed on the underside and reads Hadeland - WJ. Measurements: 4.75 in diameter (12 cm) x 10 in high (25.5 cm). Note: Willy Johansson was a (1921- 1993) Norwegian glassware designer. Between 1939-42, he studied Statens Handvaerks -og Kunstindustriskole Oslo. His father was at the Hadelands Glassverk, Jevnaker, where Johansson joined the glassmaking workshop in 1936. He was best known for the white rim on his clear or smoked glassware...
