This is a charming example of a crystal sculpture, designed by Mats Jonasson for his ‘Signature Collection’ under Målerås Glasbruk.
The sculpture is made from 28% PbO (lead oxide) which makes it a very high-quality lead crystal.
It is designed to look like a block of ice and the back is moulded with a bear. The original moulds for these pieces have been designed by Mats Jonasson before being hand cast.
The base is polished flat and engraved by hand with ‘M J SWEDEN 3332’.
In addition, the piece bears the original black and gold sticker, which reads ‘MATS JONASSON SIGNATURE COLLECTION HANDMADE IN SWEDEN LEAD CRYSTAL 28% PbO’.
The piece also comes in the original blue and gold cardboard box, although this is quite worn in places.
It has a height of approximately 9.6cm, with a maximum width of 9.9cm and a maximum depth of 4.4cm.
It has an unwrapped weight of 650g.
It is in excellent condition, with no chips or cracks.
