Mould-blown Glasses by Henrik Koivula for Humppila, Finland. 1970s

These stunning mould-blown transparent blue glasses belong to Henrik Koivula's
Fantasia series, which he designed for Humppila glassworks in the 70s. They have a lovely sculptural quality that interacts with the light beautifully!

Each glass is in excellent vintage condition with no notches, cracks, repairs or discolouration. The listing is for a set of four.

Brutalism emerged in the 1950’s and grew out of the early 20^th century Modernist movement. The term comes from the French words ‘beton brut’, which means raw concrete. This is quite fitting given the characteristics of Brutalism –  rough, unfinished surfaces, unusual shapes, heavy looking materials and straight lines.
