An Extremely Rare Helena Tynell Engraved Vase Model 6641 for Riihimäen Lasi 1957

About the Item

An extremely rare art glass piece by Helena Tynell. Signed and dated from 1957. A perfect gift for art glass collectors or even fishermen and fish lovers. Helena Tynell (1918-2016), Paavo Tynell´s wife was a notable Finnish glass designer who has been described as a pioneer of Finnish glass art. She started her career for the Arabia factory, a leading Finnish housewares and ceramics manufacturer. At the same time she worked for Taito, a design firm part owned by her future husband Paavo Tynell. In 1946, having decided to focus exclusively on glass, she left Arabia to join Riihimäki Glass, where she stayed for most of her career and created many of her most notable designs. Tynell`s works can be found in many museums, including the Design Museum Helsinki, the National museum in Stockholm, and the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, NY, USA.
