Orrefors Graal "Fish" Vase by Edward Hald

Immerse yourself in the enchanting underwater world captured within this exquisite Orrefors Graal vase, designed by the legendary Edward Hald. This 7-inch treasure showcases the iconic "Fish Graal" motif that made Hald's work internationally celebrated—delicate tropical fish swimming gracefully through swaying aquatic plants, forever suspended in crystal-clear glass.

The revolutionary Graal technique, pioneered at Orrefors in 1916, involves layering colored glass with intricate designs, then encasing them in multiple gathers of clear crystal. The result is a mesmerizing three-dimensional effect where the imagery appears to float weightlessly within the glass itself.

This piece transitions beautifully from deep emerald greens at the base—evoking a lush seabed—to pristine clarity at the rim, creating natural depth and luminosity. Each fish is rendered with remarkable detail, their scales catching light as the vase is turned.
