Glass Head Sculpture
I received the two Kosta Boda Glass Head Sculptures and they are exquisite. I cannot wait to order the third one “ Hope” as soon as available.
Every piece tells its own story — Companion Yes is a small glass head sculpture by Bertil Vallien, made entirely from circular glass: waste glass collected from Kosta Boda's own production in Kosta, Sweden. The word "YES" is cast into the forehead, making this a piece as affirming as it is beautiful.
Because the source glass varies in shade, no two Companion sculptures are alike. Colors range from soft greens and blues to deeper, richer tones, with tiny bubbles formed during the casting process adding character and texture. Each one is a genuinely unique work of art with its own color DNA.

As each Companion is cast from circular glass, color and tone will vary between pieces. The item you receive may differ slightly from the image shown — this is part of what makes each one uniquely its own.
