Norwegian Glass Fish

Crafted from heavy, solid clear lead crystal by the historic Norwegian glassworks Hadeland Glassverk, this vintage mid-century figurine is a whimsical and minimalist representation of a whale or pufferfish. The Scandinavian art glass piece features a bulbous, teardrop-shaped body adorned with distinctive, large frosted crystal eyes and a matching frosted circular lips. Its playful, stylized form tapers into an elegantly sculpted, upturned tail with ribbed detailing, showcasing the exceptional hand-hold craftsmanship of the studio. Retaining its authentic, metallic gold "Norsk Hadeland Krystall" foil label, this heavy collectible beautifully functions as both a decorative modernist sculpture and a desktop paperweight.
