T66 Bowl

Björn Trägårdh 1937

The T66 bowl was designed by Swedish designer Björn Trädgårdh during a 10-day Midsommar visit at Reijmyre Glasbruk.

Now, after decades, a limited number of these timeless pieces have returned to the glassworks. Each T66 bowl is hand-shaped and mouth-blown in lead-free crystal, using traditional techniques passed down through generations at Reijmyre. It is also signed, dated, and finished with the classic pontil mark.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

Glassblower’s pipe is a delicate instrument through which the glassblower breathes life into molten glass, a tradition upheld at Reijmyre Glassworks, that can be traced back 2000 years all the way to Syria. The glowing glass mass is caught from the glass oven and slowly inflated while spinning the barrel. The glass mass is then formed into almost unbelievably beautiful shapes and objects.
