Meet The Designer: Goran Warff
Artist: Goran Warff
Göran Wärff (1933-2022) was a doyen of Kosta Boda and the entire Kingdom of Crystal – a legend who was connected to our history and who was part of shaping the Swedish glass tradition for more than 60 years.
Göran was from Slite on the island of Gotland, and was out at sea with the senior pilot from a young age. The past few years, he lived with his wife on Hau Gård farm by beautiful Ar, on the rocky coastline of the northwestern tip of the island. The legacy of his place of origin permeates his glass art – since he began, the sea was Göran’s greatest source of inspiration. The feeling of the endless ocean is reflected in Göran’s art.
