Duca - Drinking service (6) - Sergel - Crystal

Set of 6 water glasses, height 18 cm x diameter 10.9 cm. The manufacturer is a well-known Swedish brand specialized in tableware, dinnerware and interior design, crystalware: Duka, from the Sergel series (inspired/designed with references to the Swedish artist and sculptor Johan Tobias Sergel). Year of foundation: 1962. History: Born from the union of 16 independent Swedish shops specializing in porcelain, glass and home articles (the oldest of which had opened in 1920 in Linköping by Hjalmar Blomkvist). Description: The transparent, brilliant crystal glass is mouth-blown and forms an elegant conical goblet. The cup features a conical, elongated bowl supported by a stem worked with a central node (nodule stem) and a flat circular base. The distinctive feature is the gold/bronze-embellished frieze along the upper band of the cup, depicting festoons, stylized drapery, ribbons and laurel garlands in a strictly neoclassical taste. Origin of the decoration: The design is inspired by the neoclassical friezes and motifs created by the Swedish court sculptor and artist Johan Tobias Sergel (1740–1814), from whom the series takes its name.
