Kosta Boda Caramba Vase, Black and White

The Caramba has been a classic for many years. Master glassblowers in Sweden's Kosta Boda glassworks craft each of these superb, translucent vases by hand. This magnificent hand-painted vase, standing 13-1/2 inches tall, is a creation of Swedish artist Ulrica Hydman-Vallien. It features a striking Adam and Eve, snake, flower, and fish motif, vividly displayed on the jar-shaped vessel.

Kosta Boda produces the Caramba vase of lead-free crystal in four modern colors: lime, orange, blue, and a dramatic black-and-white. The gentle, soft shape of the vase creates an exciting contrast to the dramatically painted design and the new vibrant hues. A bit more detailing is shown on the black-and-white version, with white hatch marks and wavy lines incised through the bold brushstrokes.

Each Caramba vase is truly a one-of-a-kind piece, signed by the artist. The white vase with a black painted design has become a popular feature in many homes. Now Hydman-Vallien has enriched her beloved product with these modern, eye-catching colors, adding a new dimension well-suited to contemporary interiors.

This exceptional art glass does not require flowers to be admired; it can stand alone as a striking focal point, displayed in a lighted niche or on a table. A matching shallow Caramba dish, featuring similar symbolic designs, is available in the same color options.

A lucky recipient will be thrilled to open the Kosta Boda gift box and find a Caramba vase or bowl. Like all fine crystal, these collectible glass pieces should be carefully washed by hand to maintain their luster. The brand's signature is accompanied by the artist's name and article number, with painted signatures on decorated items.

Kosta Boda, one of the leading glasshouses in the world, has a rich history dating back to 1742. The company's designers work closely with skilled craftspeople to bring their artistic visions to life in both utilitarian and art glass. The diverse individual expressions and creative freedom have become the hallmarks of the Kosta Boda brand, known globally for its colorful, handmade glass.
