Holmegaard

Holmegaard is the famous Danish glass manufacturer founded in 1825. Per Lütken was Holmegaard's designer from 1942 until his death in 1998 and was a genius of glass design. His glass generally looks very simple but, despite that, it's unique. No-one else made glass that looked like his. Smoke gray and a pale steel blue were his colours of choice in the 1950s.

The simpler the design, the more obvious any flaws. Holmegaard craftsmanship is superb. Their glass is generally clear, bubble-free, and often beautifully thick and weighty..
