2015/16 COLLECTION
CELEBRATE OUR ANNIVERSARY IN STYLE
Holmegaard is a prestigious brand with 190 years of history. Many old Danish design
companies have been acquired by foreign corporations, but Holmegaard is still in
Danish hands.
In honour of Holmegaard’s 190-year anniversary on November 5th, 2015, the glassworks is introducing a mouth-blown anniversary spirits bottle. Only 1825 individually
numbered bottles will be produced, corresponding to the year in which Holmegaard
opened as Denmark’s first real glassworks.

THE HISTORY
c
A G LASSWORKS
THAT REFLECTS THE
TIMES
This year, Holmegaard turns 190 years of age. In addition to being beautiful and functional, the
world-renowned glass artwork has always moved with the times – and it still does today. New, old
and rediscovered designs meet in a refined blend that appeals to both young and old.
You know them, of course: the Provence bowl, the
Selandia dish, the MB vase and the Idéelle glass.
Classics whose official name may escape you, but
which you may well have encountered time and
time again in the homes of your parents, an aunt,
a grandmother, or in your own home. Because
these are evergreens, treasured by every generation since 1825.
While Holmegaard may be 190 years old, the
glassworks doesn’t just produce the old faithfuls.
In 2008, Rosendahl Design Group purchased the
rights to design and produce Holmegaard’s glas,
which meant, first and foremost, that talented
young designers were invited to work with the
prestigious establishment.
Among these are award-winning designers
such as Maria Berntsen and Cecilie Manz, who
have interpreted Holmegaard’s legacy each in
her own, modern design idiom, and created innovative designs for the home. Maria Berntsen’s
Design with Light series is today one of the
best-selling series in Holmegaard’s product range.
Keeping traditions alive
More new items and talented designers are on
their way, but the Danish company doesn’t just
produce new designs. Older concepts kept un-
der wraps have also gained significance. Along
with the rights to Holmegaard’s trademark came
access to an enormous archive of glass samples,
prototypes and entire collections produced over
many decades.
Holmegaard’s new owners allowed plenty of
time to review these treasures, knowing that the
true art lies, as Holmegaard’s creative director
Magnus Jørgensen insists, in finding the balance
between new products and constantly developing the legacy over time.
The Future glass, designed by Peter Svarrer in
2000, was one of the first items released by Holmegaard to the market following the relaunch. In
2012, a brand new edition of the JEB 65 tulip vase,
originally designed by Jacob E. Bang in 1965, hit
the stores. And recently, the Bouquet vase from
2002 and the Palet series from 1969 were reintroduced in updated versions. Since then, several new interpretations of old designs have seen
the light of day, winning a place in the hearts
and homes of Danes and international customers
alike. Just as it has been for the past 190 years.
Right from the beginning, Holmegaard has
been known for being ahead of its time. From
the founding of the glassworks by a woman –
long before it was usual to see a female in such

THE HISTORY
l
a role – to today, where the company has created
ground-breaking designs that are both beautiful
and functional, time and time again. Countess
Henriette Danneskiold-Samsøe launched the first
production. From the very first day, she ran the
business in her own particular style.
She invited local traders to sell their wares at
Holmegaard, making the glassworks a lively and
inviting place to be. She proved to be a clever
businessperson who never comprised on profits
or quality. At the same time, the Countess cared
deeply for her workers, providing medical and
dental care for employees, and assigning land to
them, too.
Three historical figures
Following Henriette Danneskiold-Samsøe’s time
at the glassworks, three men, in particular, were
pivotal to Holmegaard’s history and design. The
first was architect Jacob E. Bang, who had never
worked with glass before becoming employed as
the creative director in 1928. His philosophy was
that if Danish arts and crafts weren’t to end up
in a museum, then they must made accessible
and practical. Glass was something one should
use – not something to be afraid of breaking.
Bang’s first contribution to Holmegaard was the
Hogla beer glass – a glass for the people. With the
Primula series, he created the first smoked glass.
It was a huge success, helping to make smoked
glass virtually a hallmark of 1930s glass design.
holmegaard.com
In 1942, designer Per Lütken took over the
leadership role. Like his predecessor, he lacked a
background in glass, but he was a master craftsman. Over the next 40 years, he designed over
300 series for Holmegaard, and his ground-breaking designs influenced glass artwork throughout
the world. The Provence bowl became his masterpiece. In 1968, Jacob E. Bang’s son Michael Bang
was employed, bringing the spirit of the time with
him. As a child of the sixties, he introduced accent colours and playful shapes to the glass. And
it was he who launched Holmegaard’s production
of lamps.
Together, the Countess, the three historical gentlemen and the younger, newly arrived
designers are clear evidence of Holmegaard’s
unique DNA. The world-renowned firm has always kept its finger on the pulse, but it continues to successfully incorporate the influences of
today’s sustainable designs in ways that preserve
the proud and beloved Homegaard legacy.
STATE-OF-THE-ART
SINCE 1825
Back in 1825, when Countess Henriette DanneskioldSamsøe established Holmegaard, she did so with the philosophy that the Danes should have a beautiful drinking
glass created with integrity. Then as now, Holmegaard is
proud of its work with leading designers in creating modern and functional glass products for the home.

THE HISTORY
c
l
HOLMEGAARD FACTS
Count Christian Danneskiold-Samsøe sought
royal permission to establish the country’s
first true glassworks at Holmegaard Mose.
Shortly after the count’s death, his widow,
Countess Henriette Danneskiold-Samsøe,
received the king’s permission to carry out
the project. In 1825, Holmegaard’s first glass
production commenced.
A marsh full of firewood
The glassworks was located in a marsh due
to the practicalities of fuelling the glass kilns.
The Countess’s clear vision
In the beginning, the works only produced
green bottles, but the Countess longed to
produce the kind of clear drinking glasses
she had seen Bohemian glassmakers craft.
From glass hut to modern concern
During the 1900s, artists were recruited to
shape Holmegaard’s glassware. It was the
beginning of a long and proud tradition
underlying the fact that today, too, some
of Denmark’s best artists work with Holmegaard.
High-quality glass
Holmegaard produces both mouth- and
machine-blown glass, using the latest and
most advanced production methods. Each
piece of mouth-blown glass is unique and
hand-crafted by the glassblower, who carefully blows precisely the right amount of air
through a narrow blowpipe. Bubbles of air
trapped within the glass, with their undeniable charm, characterise mouth-blown glass.

Say “Holmegaard” and you’ve almost said
“decanter” in the same breath. The decanter
with its characteristic pillars has been part of
Holmegaard’s DNA since the latter’s founding
in 1825. And this year, as Holmegaard celebrates 190 years, the iconic decanter is a natural part of the celebrations. The 2015 decanter
not only features three pillars instead of the
classic four, but it has its own special anniversary colour, too: Smokey brown. It will be produced in exactly 1825 individually numbered
pieces, corresponding to the year in which
Holmegaard opened its doors as Denmark’s
first real glassworks.

When Holmegaard introduced Old
English, it wasn’t just as an extension of Holmegaard’s comprehensive
range of vases. This vase, created
in close dialogue with flower-lover
Claus Dalby, is also the first vase Holmegaard has designed together with
a flower expert, and it has been overwhelmingly received. Old English will
now be released in an imposing floorsize version, standing 60 cm tall.
Water is one of life’s few free pleasures and, according to today’s nutritional advice, we should drink a lot of
it. This demands a sizeable carafe for
both everyday use and for entertaining. And it’s also why Holmegaard has
supplemented the classic Cabernet
glass series with a water carafe. Cabernet was based on Peter Svarrer’s
design dogma of modernism, functionality and everyday elegance.

Per Lütken’s Provence glass bowl
first saw the light of day in 1955,
and has remained a favourite of
design lovers ever since. A feat
that has made Provence a true
classic, and shows how well-executed design is often timeless.
Here, the beauty is in the details
and in the advanced craftsmanship that has kept the Provence
design hot for six decades, and
which is now celebrated with a

BEER
E SS E NT I A L S
Beer is no longer just beer. Today, beer
is a cult, cherished with the same intensity and refinement we know from
the world of wine. This has put microbreweries, beer tastings and foodpairing high on the gastronomic agenda.
And, with the mouth-blown Humle
glass series, Holmegaard has created a new, smooth-flowing series that
gives modern beer culture its very
own glasses for pilsner/wheat beer,
ale and stout.
The pilsner/wheat beer glass has
a slim design that’s perfect for these
light and lively beer types with their
low alcohol content and modest bouquet. The voluminous Ale glass gives
the beer’s flavoured nuances room to
unfold, while the heaviest beer types
are right at home in the short, stocky
Stout glass with its broad surface area
and a bowl that retains the bouquet.

For the past 190 years, Holmegaard has been
a vibrant part of Danish glassware legacy, and
counts both classic and coloured design in
its design archive. Among these are the Palet storage jars designed by Michael Bang for
Holmegaard in 1969, and which have since become part of a larger glass series. With Palet,
Holmegaard introduced pop culture to Danish
glass craft, and the accent-coloured products
are still in great demand among collectors.

C LASS IC
W IT H A TWIST
Make your interior beautiful and harmonious with Maria Berntsen’s Design with Light glass series.
The series can both cast an intimate glow over a summer evening on the terrace, or make your dinner table even more stylish and inviting.
When designer Maria Berntsen decorates her
home just north of Copenhagen, the style is ‘classic with a twist’. The same can be said for the
Design with Light glass series she has created for
Holmegaard. Its lanterns, pots and candleholders
are simple and classic in their expression, but with
a surprising twist that makes the series unique
and contemporary: A small, full-grain leather
handle.
In addition to making the series’ elements
even more appealing to the eye, the handle is also
a practical feature that makes it easy to move the
lanterns and pots around the home. For Maria
Berntsen, it is important that everything fits within a larger vision. Each design must be beautiful
and harmonious, but it must also exude quality.
The experienced designer gathers ideas from
her travels, frequently bringing souvenirs home
with her. A particularly inspiring trip took her to
Iceland’s expansive, enchanting nature, but her
thoughts are just as often stimulated on a sailing
trip with her family.
The Design with Light series is particularly
characterised by a distinct Scandinavian expression with a slight warm, organic twist. The lan-
terns lend an inviting atmosphere to long summer nights on the terrace, but are also perfect in a
window, on the floor, or on the dinner table.
The series’ pots and dishes are good for
snacks, fruit and other goodies, but are just as
useful for holding pens and pencils in the home
office, for displaying stones and shells collected
on the beach or as stylish decoration on a window sill.
DESIGN WITH LIGHT
The series comprises lanterns in clear or frosted glass with
a leather handle, in four different sizes. The round opening
in the lantern is handmade, and created with functionality
in mind. The opening allows the candle to be inserted, lit
or snuffed out.
Pots in clear or frosted glass with a leather handle, available in three sizes.
Chamber candleholders and candleholders in clear glass
with a little leather strap.

New additions to the series include a ‘strapless’ tealight

candleholders.

A VAS E WITH ENTIRELY
N AT UR AL CONTOU RS
When Peter Svarrer started working with the shape of the Cocoon series, it was the glass itself that
did most of the work. The result is a design with soft contours that perfectly supplements the minimalistic, Scandinavian living style.
It’s often the simplest things that are hardest to
create. This applies, too, to Peter Svarrer’s Cocoon
series, which the award-winning glassware artist
has designed for Holmegaard. It took no less than
three years to develop the series’ first vase, because its shape was to be created by the glass
itself.
“Glass is a living material, and I wanted to let
the glass work for me. The first shape that arises
when you design in glass is a drop. I’ve refined
that shape so as to create a balance between
proportion and tension. But the glass was an active participant in the design process. I like to say
that the vase spun itself. That’s why it’s called Cocoon,” says Peter Svarrer.
The artist nurtures a fondness for glass as a
material, and organic shapes characterise his designs. The ambition with Cocoon was to create a
shape that could capture and reflect light in the
special way that only glass can.
holmegaard.com
“When I’m working to create a new design in
glass, I always have the unique nature of glass in
mind. As a material, glass is wonderful for communicating my organic design idiom,” Peter Svarrer explains.
The result is a beautiful piece of glass artwork
that can be used as a classic vase or stand without contents as a simple decoration. The series is
produced in several colours, all of which help to
emphasise the vase’s soft contours.
Cocoon’s soft, organic expression is graceful
supplement to the minimalistic Scandinavian living style, and the series has been welcomed into
many homes.
The popular series has, therefore, been expanded over the years with vases and bowls in
a number of sizes and colours, and small tealight
holders in transparent pastels. Both vases and
holders can stand beautifully alone or grouped on
a table, on a window sill or in a bookshelf.

Popular gardener Claus Dalby has expanded his repertoire to include glassware design. In 2014, he
began working with Holmegaard to create an entirely new vase that could present its flowers in the
most appealing way. And the beautiful Old English series is the fruit of these labours.
We usually see him busily arranging beautiful
bouquets or sharing his good advice on dream
gardens and gorgeous greenhouses. One thing is
certain: Claus Dalby’s hands and jaw are seldom
at rest. Through his blog, books and TV shows, he
has attained guru-like status among many flower-loving Danes.
In 2014, a new project bloomed for the energetic gardener: He joined Holmegaard in creating
the ultimate bouquet vase. A vase that would
convey Holmegaard’s unmistakable glassware
style, be easy to arrange flowers in and, not least,
present its flowers in the most appealing way.
“When you love, as I do, to arrange bouquets
and put flowers in water, it’s obvious that vases
are of the essence. I have several hundred, but not
all vases warrant a place in my collection,” says
Claus Dalby, who found, in fact, inspiration for the
new Holmegaard vase in one of his favourites at
home.
“When in England many years ago, I bought
an antique, trophy-shaped vase, and it has since
been my favourite when a bouquet needs be
optimally presented,” Claus Dalby explains. The
result of the collaboration between Dalby and
Holmegaard is the mouth-blown vase Old English, which – as the name suggests – also seems
to be taken straight from the English aristocracy.
Old English takes its creative inspiration from the
traditional English garden, where beautiful bouquets and flower heads floating in water are a
special feature.
The series’ underlying design is that of a classic, trophy-shaped vase. The vase’s transparent
lightness is supported by the base, which lifts
the flowers up on a pedestal for best effect. The
trophy form’s narrow waist gathers the stalks in
a spacious bowl that provides plenty of room to
spread out. The broad lip keeps the flowers upright so that even heavy, luxurious bouquets can
be beautifully arranged.
Holmegaard has now released a big sister
for the vase – a 60 cm floor-standing vase that
makes it possible to arrange larger bouquets even
more extravagantly. The soft lines and contours
from the vases are also reflected in the series’
flower bowl, which is perfect for bulbs, plants and
cut flower heads in water.

The glass has a broad surface area to

A pour line lets you know when you
have poured the right amount – precisely to where the surface area is largest and best for the wine to develop.

Its form comes before its function, and

Perfection its unique functionality: A
pouring line that lets you pour the correct amount of wine into the glass to
achieve optimal aeration.
Cabernet appeals to those who treasure aesthetics – women, in particular,
enjoy placing Cabernet on the dinner
table.
Cabernet in brief
A good wine glass improves any wine
experience, because it is designed to
enhance the wine’s taste and flavour
nuances. And that’s precisely what
Peter Svarrer’s Cabernet series does.
It’s designed to reveal the wine’s full
potential, together with a sharp eye
for aesthetic appeal. The glass unites
Svarrer’s three design philosophies:
Modernism, function and everyday elegance. The Cabernet glasses are light
both in weight and style.
Choose Bouquet as an unassuming
glass that is both beautiful to look at
and lovely to drink wine from. Younger
homemakers, in particular, fall for Bouquet’s relaxed charm.
Bouquet in brief
In the world of wine, the expression
‘bouquet’ denotes the aroma of wine
that has matured in bottles. A wine’s
bouquet changes with age, and so has
Peter Svarrer’s wine series Bouquet.
This year, Bouquet comes in a new,
more stringent design that maintains
the glass’s elegant style, but which
brings the series up to date. The 2015
Bouquet has a shorter stem and a less
rounded bowl.

BEER
I S HERE TO STAY
Well-brewed beers are one of the biggest trends at the
moment. Speciality stores are bulging with beer – not just
from big beer brands, but also from micro-breweries that
spoil beer lovers with one taste experience after another.
And in the same way as good wine, a good beer demands
a good glass.

The Idéelle series was designed in 1978 by Per Lütken, and
the glass is regarded as Holmegaard’s best-selling glass of
all time. Per Lütken was fond of the feminine form, and this
is clearly evident in Idéelle. The glasses’ weight and curved
edge make them a pleasure to drink from. The Idéelle series
includes glasses for different wines, champagne, cognac,
water, schnapps and beer, with or without stems, as well
as a carafe.

In 2005, glass artist Torben Jørgensen created Det Danske
Glas (the Danish Glass) together with the Danish Beer Enthusiasts association. The design brief was to create the perfect glass for beer – and they succeeded. In fact, the glass
has almost reached cult status among beer enthusiasts. Det
Danske Glas suits all types of beer. The shape and the surface area of the spacious, tall glass make it ideal for complex
beers that place the same demands on the development of
taste and flavour as a good bourgogne. Torben Jørgensen
has also designed a schnapps glass
for the series, and the pair go well
together on any festive lunch table.

Per Lütken is also the man behind another Holmegaard
classic. Charlotte Amalie was created in 1981 and named
after Lütken’s wife. In addition to being a delight to drink
from, the series’ sculptural silhouette gives your table setting a beautiful, feminine touch. You can lend your table
uncompromising style with the candleholder that complements the series. Charlotte Amalie is glass artwork at its
most beautiful and romantic. The series includes glasses
for champagne, different wines, schnapps and beer – and
a candleholder in two sizes.
Skibsglas (the Ship’s Glass) from
1971 is one of Holmegaard’s most
recognisable classics. Shaped to
fit the hand and with a curvaceous
profile, the glass is robust and
well-suited for use each and every
day – and especially for a classic
Nordic luncheon with cold beer and schnapps.
Per Lütken was one of Holmegaard’s most advanced
glassblowers, breathing life into more than 3,000 glass designs, many of which have become classics and prized collector’s items. And that absolutely applies to the Skibsglas.

WIT H H O L M EGAA R D
Christmas is the cosiest time of the year. It’s the
time for putting flickering candles and decorations
in every window and corner of the home. Christmas
is also a time for traditions – and Holmegaard has its
very own, atmospheric version of these.
Every Christmas, new motifs are added to Holmegaard
Christmas, and the festive Yuletide glass artwork has
become an indispensable part of Christmas decorations
in the home. Jette Frölich and Ann-Sofi Romme are the
designers, each with their own series. This year, both
feature nature’s own motives.
Christmas in Jette Frölich’s winter garden
For many years, Holmegaard has collaborated with Jette
Frölich to create Christmas decorations. Her Christmas
series comprise functional glass products for the kitchen
and table, and this year, she has once again interpreted
her motifs from things both familiar and natural. Jette
Frölich has drawn inspiration for the series from her own
winter garden, where frost lies on the bare branches and
small birds gather around the feeding tray.
Jette Frölich sets the stage for Christmas with nature’s own materials – and a single, aesthetically pleasing element is ample to create an authentic Christmas
spirit. This year, once again, her stylised illustrations
adorn well-known everyday utensils, showing how
snow, frost and berries are the garden’s Christmas decorations, just as we decorate our home interiors for the
festivities.
Romme’s Christmas rose
Ann-Sofi Romme’s glass decorations have become
a permanent part of Holmegaard’s Christmas range.
As always, she works with well-known shapes in soft,
curved glass with stylised motifs in red and gold. Each
season showcases a new theme, and this year features
a Christmas rose surrounded by four red hearts. It could
hardly be more simple or elegant.
Red silk ribbons and a golden charm complete the
glass decorations and remind us of the meaning of
Christmas. The ribbon is a perfect way to hang each
decoration in windows, on the tree and on cut branches
in vases and pots. A gathered cluster of glass artwork
is a simple yet effectful expression of a contemporary
Christmas decoration that gathers the room’s Yuletide
cheer around a single, stylish display.

TAKE GOOD CA RE OF YO UR
HOLM EGAA RD GLASSE S
Avoid scratching the glass, as a weakened surface
is more likely to crack. Avoid drastic temperature
changes, as this can cause the glass to shatter.
Generally, Holmegaard glasses can be washed
in the dishwasher on the glass programme at a
maximum of 55°C. Choose the machine’s shortest
cycle. Remember to add the right doses of rinse
aid and dishwashing detergent, and open the machine as soon as it is finished to allow the steam
to escape. Please note that Holmegaard glass designs with embellishments applied are not dishwasher-safe.
The clouding effect
Clouding can affect both low- and high-quality
glasses, and is most often caused by dishwashers,
as they expose the glass to harsh detergents.
The detergent, together with the long exposure time, can cause the glass itself to crystallise.
Clouding won’t transfer from one glass to another.
How to avoid clouding
There are several things you can do to reduce the
risk of clouding:
holmegaard.com
• Correct dosage of rinse aid and detergent
• Wash at temperatures under 55°C
• Select the machine’s shortest programme
• Open the machine as soon as it’s finished to let
the steam out. Steam isn’t good for glasses and
if you’re home when the machine is done, it’s
a smart idea to dry the glasses with a kitchen
towel.
The best result is achieved by dosing salt, rinse
aid and detergent separately based on the hardness of the water and in relation to how dirty the
glasses are. You can read more about the water
hardness in your area on your local water utility’s
website.
Have your glasses already become white?
It’s a good idea to try soaking your glasses in citric acid or vinegar water overnight. If the white,
cloudy layer disappears, it was limescale, which
can be avoided by changing the way your dishwasher is dosed. If it doesn’t disappear, contact
the store where you purchased your glasses and
they will assist you further.
