Stunning Vintage Glass Vase by Sven Palmqvist, 1950's crafted by the Kraka technique at Orrefors in the 1950s. A unique piece from the Swedish glass master.
Kraka is a special type of glass with overlay (a clear inner layer and one or more colored outer layers). A craftsman then pulls a net over the outer layer and sandblasts it before adding a clear outer layer. Sven Palmqvist developed this technique at Orrefors in 1944. The name comes from a female character who wore only a fish net in a Viking saga.
