This long-awaited book chronicles their work in color and is a companion to the authors'earlier work on col-orless, smoky, and engraved glass. This is the first book to cover all the major and many of the minor compa-nies, revealing how each country (Sweden, Finland,Denmark, and Norway) had its particular color palette and style.With more than 700 full color photos, comprehen-sive design biographies, company histories, close-ups of labels and signatures, bibliography, index, and price guide, this volume will be indispensible to collectors,dealers, and scholars interested in Scandinavian glass and 20th century design.

Twentieth-century Scandinavian glass is remarkably varied.Early in the century a restrained modernism resulted in primarily colorless glass that depended on form and surface decoration.The technical virtuosity of the engraver and cutter was as critical as that of the glassblower.
