Sweden has a long tradition of making fine glassware -  Kosta Boda was founded in 1742 and Orrefors in 1898, and now, as an amalgamated company, they boast what is undoubtedly the world's best group of glass designers and master glass craftsmen in the world. 

Intermezzo, designed by Erika Lagerbielke, is undoubtedly an Orrefors success story - the line celebrated its 20th birthday during the 2005 Year Of Design. It has also won the prestigious Excellent Swedish Design award. The eye-catching blue drop suspended within each glass adds sophistication, yet also brings whimsy to your table.

This brandy balloon is one of three new pieces introduced to the Intermezzo range as a result of popular demand. The shape was specially designed to be comfortably cradled in your hand.
