She began at Rörstrand in 1941, became especially known for combining beauty with function, and later worked as a freelance designer for Rosenthal from 1969 to 1981, where she developed several porcelain services and design objects with her characteristic clarity of form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMario Colelli \u003c\/strong\u003ewas a Murano-associated glassmaker known for technically demanding filigrana \/ filigree work, in which fine colored canes are embedded into clear glass to create linear optical patterns. In Rosenthal Glasstudio pieces attributed to him, that Venetian craft vocabulary is paired with a more reduced Northern European design language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRosenthal\u003c\/strong\u003e, founded in 1879, is best known for its major role in 20th-century German porcelain, but under Philip Rosenthal the company evolved into a much broader design house. With the launch of Rosenthal studio-line in 1961, Rosenthal positioned itself at the forefront of contemporary design and, alongside its famous porcelain and ceramic lines, introduced glass and cutlery as part of a unified modern program. This expansion was not secondary, but central to the brand’s identity, with German glass production anchored by the Amberg glassworks from 1970 onward. Rosenthal’s glass lines from this period share the same design-driven spirit as its porcelain: refined, experimental, and closely tied to leading artists and designers of the time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rosenthal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57038987395447,"sku":"1090","price":540.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0923\/0434\/3415\/files\/1090_29.11.2024_1_Vase_Rosenthal_Orangeandred_Glass_Glossy-1.jpg?v=1776966003","url":"https:\/\/www.berlinretrofinds.com\/products\/filigrana-hand-blown-glass-vase-mario-colelli-and-hertha-bengtson-for-rosenthal-1980s","provider":"Berlin Retro Finds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
