The polished surface remains as it was.

Bertil Vallien (1938- )
He is one of the artists who has transported Swedish glass to the farthest distances.

I studied at the Stockholm School of Arts and Crafts.
After spending time in the United States, he joined Boda's workshop in 1963.

Pouring molten glass into a mold carved into the sand,
A series of works depicting boats and human heads.
In that work, which felt like it was trapping something inside,
It became internationally known.
