Swedish Art Glass Crystal Bird Paperweight by FM Konstglas 1970s
By Orrefors, Kosta Boda, Marcolin Art Crystal
Located in North Hollywood, CA
Scandinavian modern full lead crystal bird figure sculpture ornament was made by Fare Marcolin for FM Konstglas Crystal Bird of Ronneby Sweden circa 1970s.
Vintage Ronneby FM Konstglas Ronneby Sweden Studio Crystal Art Glass Bird Paperweight.
Handmade Swedish crystal art glass figure in the form of a bird made by the Swedish Studio FM Art Crystal Studio Line Konstglas of Ronneby.
Exceptional minimalist Danish Scandinavian art crystal sculpture, timelessly Modern yet luxurious in style and brings with it an elevated yet glamorous simplicity.
Dimensions:
H: approximately 6.5 inches
W: 4 inches at widest point
D: 3-1/4 inches
Condition: The crystal clear art glass paperweight is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or damage apart from a few very light wear scratches to the flat polished base. The figure still has the original foil label attached. Which read: Genuine hand made FM Art Crystal Studio Line Ronneby Sweden, Full Lead Crystal.
The base of this item is signed etched with "FM, Ronneby, Sweden, R 3" and numbered.
Made by FM Konstglas (which later became Marcolin Art Crystal) of Ronneby, Sweden.
About:
Färe-Marcolin Konstglas, Ronneby (1961-1991) Josef Marcolin (b.1933 - d. 2015) and Benito Marcolin (b.1936) learned their art glass skill and techniques in Murano, Venice before moving to Sweden in 1954 to work at the Glimma glassworks. They would move to Reijmyre glassworks in 1956 before starting their own company, FM Konstglas around 1961. Several of their designs can be seen in both Reijmyre and FM Konstglas. FM stands for Färe-Marcolin, a combination of the brothers' surname and the maiden name of Josef's wife, Inga-Lill Färe. Inga-Lill's father Bror Färe was a businessman, and it is thought that he helped to fund the company, which would explain the inclusion of his surname in the company name.
The original glassworks was based in Eneryda and hence any glass produced while at Eneryda bore labels with 'FM Konstglas, Eneryda'. The glassworks would move to Ronneby in 1961 and the labels were subsequently changed to 'FM Konstglas, Ronneby' or 'FM Konstglas, Ronneby, Sweden'. FM Konstglas / Marcolin pieces began as mainly glass figurines, with a unique blended style and techniques of Swedish and Murano art glass. They also produced other glassware such as vases, bowls, and perfume bottles, using traditional Murano techniques such as Millefiori, Sommerso, Sfumato, and Zanfirico. FM Konstglas pieces without labels are often mistaken for Murano glass.
The company changed its name to FM Marcolin Art Crystal in 1983 and changed again to Marcolin Art Crystal around 1988. The Swedish factory closed in 1991 and production was moved to Sardinia, Italy with the intention of producing the same products with Sardinia Crystal...
