Set of five Vineta bowls designed by Kjell Blomberg for the Swedish glassworks Gullaskruf in the 1960s. Crafted in smoky grey pressed glass, each bowl features a subtle geometric relief pattern that creates characteristic light play across the surface—a hallmark of mid-century Nordic glass design.
Measuring 14 cm in diameter and 5.5 cm in height, these bowls present balanced proportions suited equally to serving and display. The pressed glass technique allows texture and form to merge seamlessly, transforming each piece into a small sculptural object where function and beauty coexist.
