Lena Bergström

After high school, Bergström started working as a decorator at Domus department store.

The next year she was awarded Excellent Swedish Design once again for the collection "Ume, Lule, Pite"; a development of her graduation project at Konstfack.

For Orrefors, Bergström designed several prize-winning products such as the Havanna and Drop collections, the crystal vase Squeeze in 1997, the votive Puck in 1999.

[2] Bergström’s textile work is distinguished by its graphic qualities, while her glass and crystal designs are often soft and organic.

[1] She also appreciates mistakes in the process; the vase Squeeze is a result of an accident that occurred in the glassworks while losing concentration at work – the result was a deformed, waving vase,[1] that was awarded Excellent Swedish Design.
