"Despite the high level of collector interest in modern Scandinavian art glass, there have been few if any publications devoted exclusively to Swedish glass made from 1930-1970, and none that have attempted to provide the collector with the background needed to fully understand the forces that determine prices in this market. The author sets forth a concise history of the two major Swedish glass producers during their peak decades, identifies those artists and designs that are of primary importance, and assigns estimated values to these works. The focus of this work is on limited production, "high end" designs, rather than on the commercial output of these firms." "The text is illustrated with color photos from the author's own outstanding collection as well as a number of illustrations supplied by Bo Knutsson Art & Antiques, perhaps Sweden's leading dealer in 20th century Swedish glass."--BOOK JACKET.

Download Swedish Glass Design Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Sweden was the most influential, and probably the most significant glassmaking nation of the 20th century. Previous studies of the subject have taken a 'Greatest Hits' approach by concentrating on unique and high-value pieces, many held in museums. This new study, the result of six years' research, takes an original approach by placing equal emphasis on the type of vases and drinking glasses given as presents or in every-day use across the world, often with current values in single and double figures. Indeed, most of the pieces illustrated will be worth under 100."

Download Orrefors Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Starting with the production of milk bottles and jam jars at a former ironworks in the Swedish province of Smaland, the groundwork was laid for what was to become a world-famous art glassworks of sweeping scope. In the centennial volume Orrefors: A Century of Swedish Glassmaking the tale of Orrefors is told by Dag Widman and Jan Brunius, each taking on half a century of glass art, from 1898 to 1998. Gunnel Holmer describes the craft of the blowing room and shops: the gatherers, gaffers, pots, and tank furnaces. Four international glass experts approach Orrefors' history from diverse viewpoints. Gillian Naylor shows how Orrefors became a symbol of Modernism and a model for the successful coupling of art and industry in Great Britain. Jonathan Sweet tells a similar tale from Australia. Derek E. Ostergaard has studied how Orrefors was introduced in the U.S. and Helmut Ricke describes how Orrefors developed an artistic approach that inspired the rest of Europe. Two photographers were given special assignments: Denise Grunstein captures the spirit of the glassworks in her evocative photos and Vince Reichhardt takes an innovative approach to photographing the beauty of glass.

Download Art Market Research Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This book is for art market researchers at all levels. A brief overview of the global art market and its major stakeholders precedes an analysis of the various sales venues (auction, commercial gallery, etc.). Library research skills are reviewed, and advanced methods are explored in a chapter devoted to basic market research. Because the monetary value of artwork cannot be established without reference to the aesthetic qualities and art historical significance of our subject works, two substantial chapters detail the processes involved in researching and documenting the fine and decorative arts, respectively, and provide annotated bibliographies. Methods for assigning values for art objects are explored, and sources of price data, both in print and online, are identified and described in detail. In recent years, art historical scholarship increasingly has addressed issues related to the history of art and its markets: a chapter on resources for the historian of the art market offers a wide range of sources. Finally, provenance and art law are discussed, with particular reference to their relevance to dealers, collectors, artists and other art market stakeholders.
