About the Item
Paul Kedelv - the great designer behind the great success Coquille at Flygsfors
Gustaf Paul William Kedelv b. Karlsson, born on April 12, 1917 in Orrefors, Kalmar county, died on September 2, 1990 in Reijmyre, Östergötland county, was a Swedish glass designer.
Kedelv started working as a student in the drawing studio at Orrefors glassworks in 1931 with supervisors such as Simon Gate and Edward Hald. From 1949 to 1956, Kedelv was active at Flygsfor's glass factory, where he, among other things, designed 39 models of Coquille glass and products in sub-capture glass. Between 1956 and 1977 he worked at the Reijmyre glassworks. Kedelv has also designed products for the Nybrofabriken in Fröseke and Fåglavik glassworks.
Flygsfors and Paul Kedelv developed the Coquille technology to its perfection during the 50s, which was also the company's heyday with perhaps Europe's most expansive product development. 39 models were produced under Kedelv's leadership and there were a large number of size and color options.
In a program/docus from 2015, third man in the Coquille workshop at Flygsfors, shows the glassblowers in “Workshop 12” at Kosta how the technology works. Erik Sjöbeck who were involved under Kedelv's leadership show how advanced and difficult it is to get the right shapes and figures - a true work of art by a fantastically talented group. Easy to spend money on!
These particular 3 for sale, which are sold together in a group, are more on the , but at the same time extremely attractive and are technically not easy to manufacture. The eldest two are signed by Kedelv 1955.
Of these three the bowl #1 is from late 50s, probably after Orrefors take-over while #2 and #3 is made in 1955 and with the following measurements (cm):
#1 L=24,5 H=11 W=18,5 (fingery red/white bowl)
#2 L=22 H=12 W=12,5 (oval red/white bowl)
#3 D=9 H=37,5 W=14 (red/white vase)
