The Orrefors "Expo" vase was designed in the 1950s by the Swedish designer Nils Landberg and is one of the outstanding examples of Scandinavian glass art of the Mid-Century era. The hand-blown glass vase captivates with its characteristic blue-grey hue, which lends an elegant depth to the transparent glass body. The dark contrasting base in strong cobalt blue creates an effective contrast and emphasizes the clear, harmonious design of the piece. A finely crafted lip at the top edge complements the balanced silhouette. The combination of masterful craftsmanship, timeless design, and subtle color effect makes the "Expo" vase a coveted collector's item of Swedish design.
