Kedelv, who trained at Orrefors under Simon Gate and Edward Hald, shaped the image of post-war Swedish art glass with his layered Coquille pieces, which are collected internationally today. Form, colour layering and execution correspond to typical Coquille bowls; however, no signature can be found on this piece, which is why we deliberately phrase the attribution with caution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bowl has a boat-like shape: both ends sweep far upwards and finish in a thickened, clear-edged rim, while the centre sinks deep and calm. Inside, a deep cobalt to ultramarine blue gathers and transitions towards the edges through a pale, milky zone into clear glass. From the outside, the light intermediate layer gives the wall a dense, luminous sky blue, enclosed in a substantial casing of clear glass. The oval base is ground flat and satin-finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs a fruit bowl, catch-all or free-standing glass object on a sideboard, dining table or windowsill, the bowl shows to best advantage in backlight, when the blue seems to glow from within, and suits a Scandinavian-influenced Mid-Century interior as well as a contemporary setting. It measures 37 cm in length, 11 cm in width and 8.5 cm in height and is in very good condition; a few production-related inclusions are visible in the glass, and the base shows only fine, age-appropriate signs of use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Flygsfors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54274208465243,"sku":"VTG-DCO-061","price":220.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/7641\/9931\/files\/flygsfors-coquille-schale-blau-01.png?v=1791478288","url":"https:\/\/artfillsspace.com\/en\/products\/flygsfors-coquille-schale-blau-klarglas-paul-kedelv-37-cm-1950er-60er","provider":"ArtFillsSpace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
