About the Item

This elegant, hand-blown glass bud vase is a quintessential example of Swedish glass artistry from the mid-20th century. Designed by the renowned artist Göran Wärff for Kosta Boda, the piece features a heavy, solid glass base with a teardrop-shaped interior. The vase utilizes the "Sommerso" technique, where a smoke-colored glass core is encased in a thick layer of clear crystal, creating a beautiful play of light and shadow. Its organic, fluid silhouette and narrow neck make it a perfect minimalist accent for a modern interior.
