Kosta Boda Atoll Large Bowl for Households

Bowl White - Designed By Anna Ehrner

The large Atoll bowl, designed by Kosta Boda artist Anna Ehrner, is a captivating piece that combines intricate veils of color with a simple, smooth silhouette. Inspired by the breathtaking coral reefs and lagoons of the South Pacific, the bowl is a fusion of serene and complex elements.

Handcrafted by master glassmakers in Kosta Boda's Swedish glassworks, each Atoll bowl is subtly distinctive due to natural variations in the creative process. With a smooth rim and substantial walls, the bowl is a pleasure to serve from, and its range of lovely colors creates an intriguing backdrop for fresh fruit or a floral centerpiece.

Pleasantly weighty and completely lead-free, the bowl measures approximately 8-5/8 inches in diameter. Kosta Boda recommends washing it by hand for best results.

About the Designer: Anna Ehrner, born in 1948, has been a designer for Kosta Boda since 1974 and maintains a studio at the Kosta glassworks. Experimental in style, Ehrner's work is distinguished by simple yet powerful shapes and the use of color in subtle, shimmering displays. She finds inspiration in nature, and the veils of color within the crystal have become a trademark of her art glass.
