The Story
Aimo Okkolin’s 1960s "Lumpeenkukka" for Riihimäen Lasi is a masterpiece of Finnish crystal art. This mold-blown and hand-ground crystal bowl is renowned for its exceptional optical effect: deep facets resemble an opening water lily, creating a play of light and shadow. Okkolin utilized a novel grinding technique, achieving diamond-like brilliance without making the form appear heavy. Due to its technical demands and limited production, it is a highly sought-after work offering long-term investment value. The piece embodies the pinnacle of mid-20th-century Finnish design, where craftsmanship and nature-inspired forms unite. It is a luxurious object held in many prestigious collections, representing a valuable piece of Nordic glass heritage, especially in pristine, signed condition.
