Why Buy Vintage Glass in the Art Deco Style?
Scandinavian Art Deco glass is characterized by clean lines, geometric shapes, and bold colors, all celebrating chic elegance. The first renowned glass designers in Sweden and Finland rose to fame particularly during the Art Deco era. In fact, Scandinavian glass design can be said to have begun with the Art Deco or Functionalism (Funkis) movements, through the works of artists such as Alvar Aalto, Aino Aalto, Simon Gate, Edward Hald, Vicke Lindstrand, Sven Palmqvist, and Göran Hongell.
