This glass dog figurine from the Kennel series was designed by Bertil Vallien for the Swedish glassworks Kosta Boda in the 1970s. Crafted from clear, colorless glass with high transparency, it combines two distinct surface textures: the front and sides feature an expressive, almost bark-like pattern, while the back remains flat and smooth. The minimalist, geometric silhouette with stylized anatomical features is a hallmark of Scandinavian modernism. The glossy finish enhances the glass's clarity and brilliance, and the piece is designed for display from either side or as a functional paperweight. Solid and substantial, the figurine exhibits visible hand-finished details and has no apparent seams or joints. It is preserved in very good condition—free from chips, cracks, or signs of wear, with the original luster intact.This object tells the story of 1970s Scandinavia—an era when simplicity and the pursuit of pure form became the language of everyday elegance. The glass, shaped by the artist's hand, evokes the ruggedness of northern nature, while the minimalist dog profile expresses a balance between functionality and subtle emotion. In natural daylight, the figure's surface reflects its surroundings, creating a delicate play of light—like a memory of a cool Swedish morning captured in crystal.The figurine would be well placed on a living room shelf, where, combined with other glass or ceramic objects, it accentuates a modernist interior. It could be paired with wooden accessories or metallic accents to achieve Scandinavian harmony or displayed solo against a matte wall to highlight the contrast of textures and purity of
