About the Item
A pair of Bjorkshult Swedish Glass Fish Figurine – A Study in Elegance and Craftsmanship.
Two ornamental figures shaped as fishes.
Made by the glassblower Ragnar Johansson.
This exquisite clear glass fish figurine is a testament to Scandinavian artistry, handcrafted with precision and grace by Bjorkshult, a renowned Swedish glassworks. The fish is sculpted from clear crystal glass, allowing light to dance through its smooth, fluid contours and refract in delicate ripples across its surface. Its form is stylized yet organic, capturing the essence of aquatic motion in a frozen moment of serenity.
- Design Details:
- The dorsal fin rises prominently, like a cresting wave, adding a sense of movement and verticality.
- Pectoral and tail fins are subtly flared, balancing the composition and suggesting propulsion through water.
- The body is rounded and polished to a mirror-like clarity, with gentle curves that evoke the softness of natural forms.
- Facial features are understated—just enough to hint at eyes and a mouth—preserving the minimalist elegance typical of Nordic design.
- Material
Finish:
- Made of high-quality lead crystal, the figurine boasts exceptional clarity and weight.
- The surface is flawlessly smooth, with no visible seams or imperfections, reflecting the artisanal skill behind its creation.
- Markings:
- A small blue sticker reading “Bjorkshult SWEDEN” affirms its origin and authenticity, anchoring it in the rich tradition of Swedish glassmaking.
- Presentation:
- Set against a black backdrop and resting on a white surface, the fishes glow with ethereal transparency, their contours sharply defined by contrast. They appear almost luminous, like a creature caught between water and light.
