Bowl
Clear blown glass
Probably designed by Per Lütken, manufactured by Holmegaard, Denmark
Dated 1957
Homewares like this bowl are typical of the taste for Scandinavian style amongst the design-conscious middle classes in the mid-twentieth century. Over time they came to influence British design in a more mainstream way, as well as now being sought after as ‘mid-century modern’ or vintage wares.
