Intermezzo

Erika Lagerbielke
Erika Lagerbielke created a classic the year after she graduated from the University of Arts , Crafts & Design ( Konstfack ) in 1984 . At that time , Intermezzo broke away from the colorless aesthetic that had been established in Sweden in the 1950s . Here was someone who wanted to make glass visible and fun , to allow it to be a statement-making element of a table setting . Instead of stepping away from Orrefors ’ legacy of beauty and tradition of craftsmanship , Lagerbielke took them both a step further . Intermezzo ’ s wine glasses , drinking glasses and carafe , which are all still mouth-blown in Småland , were at the time more sensual than those of past generations . And sealed into the glass , rising up from the surface of the table , is a teardrop-shaped mystery . A small , but characteristic detail fascinating enough to inspire a conversation at any time . It has been doing just that for decades – Intermezzo is aesthetic sustainability personified .
