ORREFORS KOSTA BODA AB
The Swedish glass group consists of four glass factories situated in Glasriket, Småland. The factories have an exciting history - Kosta was founded in 1742 and Orrefors 1898 - but today they are modern, ISO-certified workplaces for over 950 people.
The group sells artistic glass of unique design produced by qualified craftsmen under the two famous brands of Orrefors and Kosta Boda. Besides the four factories - Orrefors, Kosta, Boda and Åfors - the glass factory SEA is also included but has its own trademark just like Glasma AB, which is a technical subsidary company supplying the home market with raw material. Orrefors and Kosta Boda run a large tourist business at their factories in Småland.
Many known designers work with a wide selection of designed glass such as drink and plate sets, vases and bowls. The artistic glass is continuously sold and displayed at galleries and museums around the world, often in the presence of the artist himself Orrefors' group of artists consists of Lena Bergström, Jan Johansson, Erika Lagerbielke, Malin Lindahl, Martti Rytkönen and Ingegerd Råman.
Working within Kosta Boda are the artists Olle Brozén, Anna Ehrner, Kjell Engman, Ulrica Hydman-Vallien, Bertil Vallien and Göran Wärff.
The designing process is in noticeably close connection with both the production and the market itself, a characteristic historical feature of the famous Swedish art industry, where artistry, crafting skills, as well as technical advances and exhibition activity interact hand in hand.
