Contrast Bowl Blue – 26 CM – by Anna Ehrner
Contrast from Kosta Boda is made using a technique called centrifuging. This technique creates veils of color within the glass, and vibrant glass canes are added during the process, making each product unique. It’s all about the contrasts! The Large bowl is beautiful on its own.
Ehrner has been awarded with the Excellent Swedish Form award in 1992 and 1994 for her design, and became the winner of Swedish Glass in 1983.
For Anna “creativity takes place in the blowing room. This is where glass is conceived, where it is fashioned and comes alive. I want to work with glass, not against it. In my designs, I try to follow along with the melt, with the sheer power of the glass, although I try at the same time to identify the simple and the subtle.”
An experimental and minimalistic stylist, Anna Ehrners work is distinguished by simple yet powerful shapes and an ability to achieve colourful displays using colour in subtle ways. Veils of colour inside the glass have become something of Anna Ehrner’s trademark, as have the lofty different coloured stalks that are characteristic of her art glass. She is also the originator of best-selling collections such as our Line glasses and the Contrast series of bowls.
