Nanny Still

[5] Her perhaps best known glass tableware design is the 1958 Harlekiini of simple geometric shapes in a deep Mediterranean blue.

[3] Although best known for glass, Still designed over her long and varied career a wide range of items, from crockery and cutlery to jewellery.

[1] From the 1990s onwards, Still worked mostly on glass sculptures creating utilising in particular the pâte de verre casting technique.

[9] Major retrospective exhibitions of Still's oeuvre were held at least in Belgium (1995, 2006), Finland (1996, 2001) and Hungary (1998).

[5][1][10] In 1958, Nanny Still married American engineer George C. McKinney, the European and Middle East director of the Virginia Port Authority, and the following year the couple settled in Brussels, where Still lived the rest of her life.
