Product description
Holmegaards Glasværk · 1920s
Set of 6 Large Hand-Engraved Crystal Wine Glasses — Model Ulla
An elegant set of six large wine glasses crafted from fine crystal, finished with precise hand engraving. The generously proportioned bowls allow the wine to fully open, while the slender stems and well-balanced feet give each glass a refined, timeless silhouette.
The engraved geometric motif is cut by hand, creating sharp, light-catching facets that enhance the brilliance and clarity of the crystal and elevate the tactile experience. Light yet substantial, these glasses embody the perfect balance between beauty and functionality. Their design is truly timeless - just as elegant today as it was a century ago - and they will look equally at home on a modern table or in a classic interior.

Historical Note - The Manufactory
Founded in 1825, Holmegaards Glasværk is Denmark’s oldest and most renowned glass manufactory and a cornerstone of Scandinavian glass and crystal production. From the 19th century onward, Holmegaard supplied both everyday household glass and crystal as well as refined tableware, establishing a reputation for exceptional clarity, durability, and craftsmanship.
By the early 20th century - particularly during the 1920s - Holmegaard had become a leader in European glass and crystal design. The manufactory successfully bridged traditional handcraft with emerging modern ideals, producing elegant yet functional forms that defined Danish taste of the period. Its work in glass and crystal was widely used in private homes, prestigious institutions, and international exhibitions.
Rather than following short-lived trends, Holmegaard focused on proportion, balance, and usability - principles that give its glass and crystal designs lasting relevance. Today, antique Holmegaard pieces are highly sought after by collectors and design connoisseurs, valued not only for their beauty but also for their enduring place in the history of Scandinavian design.
