Kosta Sweden Engraved Viking Ship Vase, Likely Elis Bergh Reissued Design

Sorry, this item has sold.

This Kosta vase is engraved with a classic viking ship, possibly an Elis Bergh design from around 1940, reissued on a vase with a modern shape in the 1960s. An unmistakable symbol of Scandinavia, the motif is a favorite for gifts of all sorts - especially when it's engraved in glass!
The vase is small: 2.5" x 1.25" x 4", and it weighs a pound.

Between 1928 and 1950, Elis Bergh was the artistic leader of Kosta glass mill . After 1950 until his death in 1954 he appeared as a consultant to Kosta. He came to Kosta through an architectural assignment for which he was to carry out an interior assignment on the mill. In 1928 he was called back to draw lighting fixtures, an area in which he considered was an authority.

As an artistic director he stood for the graceful yet modern design that characterized Kosta's production during the interwar period .
