Proposed statue for sale, ie a crystal figurine of a Viking, it is made by Lars Hellsten, a known and acknowledged master of glass and crystal design, being made for Skruf Glassbruk, Sweden, in the '60s. The design is stylish, innovative and modern - the geometrization of forms. A drawing vigorous, strong, inspiring force and strength, a design line that characterizes the entire work of this Swedish artist. The technique used is mold-blown, or blown crystal In an mold, to obtain the shape and texture. However, a rarity and a true work of art, taking into account the fact that Lars Hellsten worked Skruf only 6 years (1964-1971) has not allowed him to keep the offer from Orrefors not refuse to artist . And Orrefors do not hire anyone!

     Lars Hellsten (b. 1933) studied sculpture at the Academy of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm, working then as a designer, the "Skruf Glasbruk" (1964-1971) before coming to Orrefors in 1972 - where he worked over 30 years. It is considered a legendary designer and an artist in the field.

     Nature, the elements of nature and inspired, in most cases, works of art glass. This includes several large pieces, well suited to public spaces. His pieces, crystal or glass, are the main characteristic strength (massive) and power, be it glass cast (cast glass), blown into molds / molds (mold-blown) or free (free-blown).

An impressive statue crystal handmade sommerso technique, the first layer dressed in emerald green is one of neodymium (also known as Alexandrite) which, in turn, is dressed in crystal clear.

Why impressive? For that, beyond the intrinsic beauty - color and shape, presence of neodymium layer provides the ability to track change color depending on light. Thus the sun's natural light color is lilac to white-fluorescent light source changes color and a smoky blue artificial light source neodymium layer becomes yellow. It is due to the presence of neodymium oxide (Nd3O3).

Proposed to sell his piece is authored by brothers Marcolini - Murano glassware artists who settled in Sweden, have set up in the '60s, "FM Konstglas of Ronneby" - closed in the 90s, with their withdrawal from activity. Such pieces are extremely rare and no longer produce. I met one, on sale at a price of 150 USD. I mean the statue in question, the statue is quite large in size. I think that the price indicated is more than modest compared with the market and to convince you that I invite you to look for products Konstglas FM or FM Ronneby Sweden Ronneby Sweden Marcolini.

 Sommerso Crystal Blue Dolphin Statuette Murano Venice

30 EURO



Condition: almost new piece is in excellent condition, no flaws.
Dimensions: height 14 cm, length 15 cm x 8 cm.


A hand-blown crystal statuette, representing a dolphin leaping from the waves. At least that was the glazier artist's intention - as long as modeled wave-shaped base - which breaks the blue dolphin jumping. The object is achieved sommerso technique (invented even the Murano in 1930 by Carlo Scarpa), two layers of glass, ie the colored (something between Lapis Lazuli and Royal Cobalt blue) and clear - that is covering - and is modeled in the form. Such a crystal object art modeling involves a highly technical, requiring at least two artists to do. If we were to refer to the shape / silhouette piece, my beautiful epithet would seem poor, given the beautiful color and perfect proportions, I would say. I do not know if the images are sufficiently indicative that whatever you photograph, you can not represent the crystal magnificence and splendor. You need to have the piece at hand to achieve what you have to do!
It should also be mentioned, and not least, this subject of art, offered for sale, is large (say not very large) for its category, if we consider its overall quotas - to what is found generally in figurines /statuettes crystal.

Cameo crystal glass block sculpture - Airport Linkoping - design B.Bindhe - Mantorp, Sweden


30 EURO


Condition: new, no box, no flaws.
Dimensions: length 16.5 cm, height 12.5 cm, width 3.5 cm. Dimensions are approximate and indicative piece having a shape relatively irregular.



Object proposed for sale is a statue / block crystal, a rare piece. I is also called "Relief", "Block Glass", "Sculpture", "Press-papier" (Paperweigt). Can we even say trinket - general category that can encompass many such pieces, though the world around flees upon hearing the word. Eventually a piece of art glassware, undoubtedly.

So a block "full lead crystal", representing an aircraft departing from an airport. The airport is one of Linkoping, Sweden. The technique is called "Cameo glass". Of course you can not carve in the crystal, but it is called style and such "sculptures" - worked in the negative - are made manually, often with a cast. Contrast is made of an opaque surface which is the background picture. The idea is that of a sugestion ice sculptures. The piece is very beautiful, decorative - especially if exposed to a place with natural light. I can say that is very rare, yet we could not find another, similar, on NET.
The "Relief" is made in the workshop "Mantorp" Sweden, how to read and the original stickers.

Pricing can not comment too much. Browse similar products "Mantorp Crystal" or note "golden rule" of the art market namely that identificate and identifiable piece respectively artist name, period, style, producer, manufacturer, also is more valuable than an anonymous, unidentified and unidentifiable - like with most, that are for sale around here and elsewhere!
