About the Item
Edward Hald (1883 – 1980) is one of the well-known Swedish glass artists who have worked for Orrefors. After studying in Leipzig, he completed his artistic training with Henri Matisse in Paris. His 'Fiskgraal' series is among his most celebrated works, created using the demanding Graal technique in which engraved motifs are encased within multiple layers of glass. The recurring fish and plant forms appear suspended in depth, a result of the complex layering and careful control of the blowing process, ensuring that each vase or bowl is unique.
In the 1920s, his work coined the term 'Swedish grace', the Swedish variant of Art Deco. The celestial globe that Edward Hald created for the 1930 Stockholm World's Fair is seen as the pinnacle of his career. During the Second World War he led the management of Orrefors, which forced him to perform a balancing act between economics and art.
