DescriptionDescription: Swedish glassworks began stamping their seal, or the client’s seal, on the still-warm glass already in the 18th century. Erik Höglund renewed this tradition with his stamped decorations. Production was rational as the same stamp could be used several times, but still gave a craftsmanlike impression. Höglund used the same technique in renewing the crystal chandelier by substituting stamped glass plates for the cut pendants.
