Colourless glass with brown underlay, freeblown with internal pattern of airbubbles showing four figures like children`s drawings.
Bengt Edenfalk started to work at Skruf Glasbruk in 1953. In 1959 he invented his famous glas called TALATTA,
which was made with internal airbubbles showing figures of men, animals or faces in childlike drawings that remind one of the early paintings of Jean Dubuffet.
A similar vase in possession of the Smålands Museum Växjö, Sweden.
