The Contrast serving dish, designed by Anna Ehrner for the Swedish glassworks Kosta Boda in the 1980s, is crafted from high-quality glass in a transparent, smoky gray shade. Its most distinctive features include hand-applied streaks of cobalt and deep blue—dynamic, gestural brushstrokes that create an expressive, swirling pattern across the bowl's surface. The glass is smooth and glossy, while the round, low form (38 cm in diameter) with gently sloping sides emphasizes harmonious, modernist proportions. The precisely finished rim highlights the meticulous craftsmanship; there are no added fittings or extraneous decorations, focusing on the material’s purity and Ehrner’s treatment of color. No major damage is visible, but minor surface scratches or small chips consistent with vintage glassware may be present. The dish remains in good condition, displaying typical signs of gentle use for glass from the 1980s.This piece embodies the spirit of Scandinavian modernity in the 1980s: geometry and clean lines are paired with intentional color expression. The blue streaks appear almost like captured brush movements—each line pulses with energy, as if the glass harbors echoes of Nordic landscapes and the era’s affinity for expressive, functional
