Open Minds

Ulrica Hydman-Vallien

If you open your mind, what do you see? Does this collection consist of functional pieces that can carry flowers and fruit, are they just made as interior objects, or is it perhaps something in between? Let’s face it - we don’t need to see eye to eye. Different points of view can be a good thing!

Open Minds is mouth-blown and hand-painted with dramatic brush strokes, creating a collection that’s always ready to face the world with a smile. It has become a true classic, and if you don’t mind, a little brag is in place: pieces from this collection has made several appearances on popular TV shows, such as Friends and Sex and the City.

Kosta Boda’s collection from 1986 consists of a dish and several different vases.
