More information

Glass pieces signed Ellen Meyer are very rare. She was employed as a designer ('förlagetecknare') in 1913-15, mainly for the 'Baltic' exhibition in Malmö 1914. There are only a very few pieces known with Ellen Meyer's name.
At the National Museum exhibition 'Swedish Art Nouveau Glass' in 1980-81, catalogue no 162, p 42, that vase was at that time mentioned as the only one known, signed with Ellen Meyer's name. Since then only a very few pieces have become known.
