Vintage hand-blown art glass vase or small sculpture Umanak is a work of midcentury Danish design by renowned glass artist Per Lütken for Holmegaard. The piece is signed Holmegaard 1958 with the artist’s characteristic monogram "PL." It dates to the 1950s and exemplifies Lütken’s mastery of fluid organic forms.
Height is 18 cm. There are few scratches, marks and fly byte alike chip on the bottom. Please, refer to the photos.
Umanak is the town in Greenland.
Its minimalist but sensuous design makes it a perfect fit for:
Scandinavian or Japandi interiors, where form follows function and nature-inspired materials dominate.
Brutalist or modernist spaces, where it can act as a subtle contrast to heavier textures like concrete or stone.
Minimalist luxury settings, placed on a low table, sideboard, or reflective surface to accentuate its transparency and the play of light within the form.
Per Lütken created over 3,000 objects for the Holmegaard glassworks, where he worked for 45 years. His works are represented in museums on every continent - from Danish institutions and the British Museum’s modern art collection to the museums in New Zealand.
