STOCKHOLM.- Nationalmuseum has acquired one of four known examples of Edward Hald’s Cactus Exhibition vase dating from 1926. This is a superb example of the high-quality glass, decorated in contemporary style, for which Orrefors was known in the early 20th century. One of the other examples is owned by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Nationalmuseum has bolstered its collection of art glass with Cactus Exhibition, a vase designed in 1926 by Edward Hald (1883–1980). This example was produced by Orrefors in 1927 and engraved with great skill and precision by Wilhelm Eisert. Only four examples of the work are currently known to exist. Besides the vase now in Nationalmuseum’s collection, there is one in a museum in Dusseldorf (produced 1926), one in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York (produced 1926) and one in the possession of HM Queen Elizabeth II (produced 1931).
