A crystal glass figurine designed by Lisa Larson in the 1980s. After leaving Gustavsberg in 1980, Lisa Larson received requests from companies around Europe as a freelance designer. This is a glass object that I made at the request of a glass maker called Royal Krona in Sweden during my free time. Lisa Larson also makes a ceramic owl figurine in Gustavsberg, but the design is exactly the same, and this one is a glass version. Although it has a small form, it has a large face and a small expression in the center. It's this perfect balance that makes Lisa Larson's designs uniquely cute. The cuteness of flapping wings is expressed. This product is made of crystal glass with high transparency, and when viewed from various angles, the expression will be slightly different. Please enjoy it as an ornament.

■ Lisa Larson (1931- )
Born in a village called Härlunda with a population of about 500 in the Älmhult district of the Kronoberg county in the Småland region in southern Sweden. When I was young, I wanted to be a fashion designer, but after entering the Gothenburg College of Art, I learned ceramics. One day, he was discovered by Stig Lindberg in a competition, and after a trial period of one year, he officially joined Gustavsberg as a designer. Soon after, in 1955, he announced the Lilla zoo series, and in 1964 he devised the famous Afrika series of lion statues.
In addition to Gustavsberg, Lisa Larson has also designed for Höganäs, national retail giant Åhléns and German pottery manufacturer Rosenthal. After leaving Gustavsberg in 1979, he took the position of a freelance artist who entered into freelance contracts with companies rather than working exclusively with them, and continued his creative activities freely while working in various fields. In 1979 and 1981, he held solo exhibitions at the Seibu Department Store in Tokyo, and it is said that 70,000 people visited the solo exhibition in 1981.
