Dimensions: diameter 8 x 30.5cm high | 1.1 litre
Material: lead-free crystal and mirror polished stainless steel
The classic elegance of this hand-blown crystal glass Bernadotte carafe makes it perfect for serving water or fruit juice. The narrow shape means it will sit easily in the door of a fridge keeping the contents chilled and the distinctive ridged surface is not only decorative but allows a firm grip.
Sigvard Bernadotte was born the son of the Swedish king but became more well known as a gifted product designer. Greatly influenced by the functionalist movement prevalent at the time, his work is characterised by elegance but never at the expense of practicality. His original silver work has inspired the contemporary Bernadotte collection of tableware.
Made from lead-free crystal and mirror polished stainless steel.

This influenced Bernadotte’s own style and he incorporated the ideals of functional elegance into his design thenceforth. Shortly afterwards, Prince Sigvard Bernadotte and Georg Jensen began a long and fruitful cooperation, in which the new functionalism was at the centre of a more modern interpretation of the work of silver.
The prince’s long affiliation with Georg Jensen represents another chapter in the rich history of Scandinavian design. His Bernadotte collection has been and continues to be a favourite for generations.
