Per Lütken Holmegaard Pair Cylindrical Vases Olive and Teal
A rare and sophisticated matched pair of large, cylindrical Art Glass vases, designed by the master glassmaker Per Lütken for Holmegaard Glasværk, Denmark, circa 1959–1960. This pair features two of Lütken's most iconic and sought-after colors, curated as a harmonious set.
The Colors:
Olive (1959): The signature soft, greenish-olive hue (often referred to simply as the 'Olive' series).
Smoky Blue, 1960): A deep, dark smoky blue-grey (teal)
The Form:
Both vases embody Lütken's minimalist "Minimum" or "Organisk" aesthetic. They feature perfectly balanced cylindrical shapes, thick, substantial bases, and smooth, fluid contours that emphasize the raw beauty and weight of the hand-blown glass. Together, they create a powerful visual presence of sophisticated Danish Modern simplicity.
