Mikael Kenlind

Mikael Kenlind, born 1984 is the fifth-generation glass blower. He grew up in an energetic environment and began to be interested in the magic of the glass early. In the early years, Michael worked with Venetian master Benito Marcolin, learning the Italian way of working today which is the foundation of all art glass he manufactures and designs. He went to Benito's championship spot at Vas Vitreum as a nineteen year old. Mikael's products reflect the enormous possibilities and flexibility of the glass, often combined with inspiration from nature's colors and shapes. Clean and stripped to let the crystal clear and the beautiful colors speak. In his unique collections, Mikael works with the highly difficult techniques filigram and incalmo where patterns of thin glass wires are created directly in the Glassworks.
