Jacob E. Bang at Holmegaard

Much of Holmegaard early glass work was derivative and inconsequential, but between the 1930s and 1980s its fortunes were transformed by the designs of Jacob E. Bang (1899-1965), Per Lütken (1916-98), and Bang's son, Michael (1944-).

The movement began in the late 1920s with the appointment as art director of Jacob E. Bang, whose designs included an amount of striking engraved work, and was continued in the clean forms of his successor, Per Lütken.

And today great designers like Cecilie Manz are putting Holmegaard back on the design map!
