Description
This sculptural Paul Kedelv Coquille vase exemplifies the refined artistry of Swedish glass design. Created for Flygfors Glasbruk in 1957, this piece showcases the sophisticated sommerso technique with layered green, pink, and white tones encased within crystal-clear glass.
The fluid, shell-like silhouette creates gentle winged edges that define the Coquille series aesthetic. The colour transitions flow naturally through the glass layers, creating depth and visual movement without overwhelming the elegant form.
