    LOUMANAL
    (436 items)

    I picked this up yesterday at a local flea market and after some research online, I was able to find out that it was probably by Erik Hoglund who created many avant-garde designs at Kosta Boda Glassworks from 1953 to 1973. He died in 1998. This large and heavy Muralglass measures 9 1/2" by 5" and is in a color that I would describe as Persimmon . It depicts a nude man and woman holding their hand to their forehead as if to peer way out in the distance. The outer frame is 1 1/2" in thickness. There are straw marks throughout the inner design. It is marked underneath with H873/E . I am not sure when these Muralglass items were made and I am having difficulty in pinning it down by the marks. Anyone know? RER(BOB)

      H937 is listed by Great Glass as being 1960's so I'd say this is prob early 1960's
