NEW BRAVE GLASS @ TOTEM SOHO



 

Totem design group is pleased to announce a collaboration with Skruf, celebrated Swedish manufacturer of outstanding, contemporary handmade glass.

Skruf, purveyor to His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden and the Swedish Royal Family, creates the glassware given as gifts from Sweden to visiting heads of state, including Europe's official gift to President George W. Bush on his visit to Sweden in 2001.

Skruf also supplies the glass for Sweden's embassies and consulates for use when entertaining important guests on occasions of state and specially designed glassware for celebrities.

With the exhibition "New Brave Glass", Skruf brings an inspirational event to the New York design scene.

Seven of Sweden's most exciting designers have designed glass pieces utilizing Skruf's unique melted glass process, a carefully guarded secret known only to a few master craftsmen.

For glass is not just glass. It is only in the unique mixture of the components of glass in the melt that one achieves that utterly crystalline sense of living glass. All products are made by hand down to the smallest detail, either mouth-blown by master craftsmen in the glassworks or handmade rim using ancient methods to create a unique and lively feeling.

Totem Design Group is a multifaceted company dedicated to promote good design through physical stores, exhibitions and educational multimedia.
