    Description

    This is an elegant sapphire blue bowl made by the famous Danish art glass company, Holmegaard, and fashioned by the famous artist, Per Lutken. It is signed on the bottom by the artist with the number 17793. The Arne/Provence bowl was hand-fashioned by Per Lütken in 1955 so each piece is unique. The bowl was created without the use of moulds and is one of the best examples of Lütken's respect for the red-hot glass that comes straight out of the furnace. Per Lütken was one of Holmegaard's most advanced glass blowers. He breathed life into more than 3,000 glass designs. many of which – like the ArneProvence bowl – have become classics and highly sought-after collector's items. This bowl was called Provence when it was re-released in the 80s, but when it was first designed by Per Lutken in 1955, it was called the Nordic man's name. Arne which is what this particular bowl is. The earlier production of the Arne bowls are of more value than the later Provence bowls. This is in great condition with no scratches or chips. It is 12-1/2" in diameter and stands 4-1/4" high. It is heavy weighing 4 lbs, 5 oz.
