The piece depicts two wolves in full stride, their movement frozen in a clear, sculpted landscape that catches and reflects light in a striking way.

Jonasson, who began working at the historic Målerås glassworks as a teenage, is renowned for his detailed drawing, careful casting, and skilled engraving. Målerås itself is one of Sweden’s most respected artisan glass studios, known for preserving traditional hand-crafting methods while allowing artists the freedom to experiment. That heritage plays a major role in pieces like this — the deep relief, crisp engraving, and luminous clarity are all hallmarks of the workshop’s meticulous, small-batch approach.

Because this sculpture is signed, it reflects the collectible side of Jonasson’s work, created with the same careful, hands-on techniques that made him one of Sweden’s most celebrated glass artists. Displayed on a mantel or shelf, it becomes an elegant focal point that brings both movement and serenity into a room. See less
