Bio:
European art glass of the 1970s was often characterised by bold colour fields, geometric silhouettes, and the integration of glass with materials such as metal. The period reflects an international modernist approach, combining functional forms with decorative surface treatments and high levels of craftsmanship, frequently produced in limited runs by specialised glass workshops.
