Joining Holmegaard in 1942, he remained with the Danish glassworks for more than fifty years, designing over 3,000 pieces and becoming one of the most influential figures in twentieth century glass design. His work is celebrated for its organic forms, exceptional understanding of molten glass and ability to create objects that feel both sculptural and effortlessly functional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFounded in \u003cb\u003e1825\u003c\/b\u003e, Holmegaard is Denmark’s oldest and most prestigious glass manufacturer. Throughout the post-war period it collaborated with some of the country’s leading designers, helping establish Danish glass as one of the defining exports of Scandinavian Modern design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis striking smoked glass bowl is one of Lütken’s most recognisable designs. Often referred to as the \u003cb\u003e‘Offset Scoop’\u003c\/b\u003e bowl, its asymmetrical form appears to have been gently pushed from one side while the glass was still molten, creating a beautifully fluid silhouette that changes dramatically depending on the angle from which it is viewed. The rich smoked glass enhances the sculptural quality of the piece, catching and reflecting light with remarkable subtlety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDetails\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDesigner:\u003c\/b\u003e Per Lütken\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/b\u003e Holmegaard, Denmark\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDate:\u003c\/b\u003e c.1960s–70s\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e Denmark\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-blown smoked glass\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eDiameter: 13 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eHeight: 6 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eVery good vintage condition with light age-related wear consistent with use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"a fold of chairs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58468619944320,"sku":null,"price":250.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/3093\/files\/DSC01704-705.jpg?v=1784281430","url":"https:\/\/www.afoldofchairs.com\/products\/small-freeform-glass-dish-by-per-lutken-for-holmegaard-1961","provider":"a fold of chairs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
