At Kosta Boda , we have worked with glass for almost 300 years , during which we ’ ve developed a deep understanding and love for the material . We work with design , interior design , lifestyle and art , and strive to create products that are bold and progressive , while still being easily accessible .
We want our collections to be a choice today as well as tomorrow , and we want our assortment of products to add inspiration and beauty in everyday life . We produce well-designed products that fill homes and lives with a foundation to enjoy meals , drinks and socializing , and we contribute to building environments where people want to live and create memories together .
Kosta Boda is not just about what we do , but about who we are . Courage , determination and collaboration have been characteristic for both the company and our staff since the start in 1742 . Other qualities that have taken us to where we are today are perseverance , craftsmanship , ingenuity and artistic flair - and all this has made our glass creative , inspiring and bold . Our vision is to be a progressive and curious Swedish brand with integrity that interprets contemporary urban life .
Our passion for what we do is great and spans a variety of areas , divided between Kosta Boda Collection and Kosta Boda Art Glass .
KOSTA BODA COLLECTION Kosta Boda Collection steers towards lifestyle , with commercial expressions that capture the spirit of the times . Well-designed and functional products in a well-coordinated assortment with high integrity . Pleasant and easily accessible .
Complementary materials can be used , but always with the main focus set on glass . We look back to move forward , with our starting point in the history of the different glassworks and designers such as Signe Persson-Melin and Erik Höglund , amongst others . To this we add creation in the present and the future . Our collections aim to reflect and promote a modern lifestyle , with a focus on everyday life . When we say everyday , we mean everything from life around the dining table and interior design , to creating memories in everyday festivities . Isn ’ t that some good food for thought ? The products draw inspiration from phenomena such as fashion , music and art and can have many different functions depending on the context and company .
