22-210 Tona Bengt Orup Johansfors 1957 Vase

Scandinavian glass design at its finest. Designed by, and signed by Bengt Orup (1916-1996). He was the artistic director of Johansfors (Sweden) glassworks in the Mid-Century. This line was called “Tona” for obvious reasons. The coloration fades from a deep teal-blue-gray to clear, at about the midsection. The slender form is particularly attractive. Works well for display, as a bud vase, or as a cool scent stick diffuser. Circa 1957. This one has a small amount of fogging at the bottom that is hard to reach. Priced accordingly.
