At Copenhagen’s 3daysofdesign in June, a myriad of colourful choices set the tone. Danish brand Reflections showcased a glass backgammon set: its deep-blue border combined with black/brown and blue draughts, complemented by purple and green dice. Its games collection also featured other classics, including chess and noughts and crosses. Another local, Helle Mardahl Studio, was a standout at the festival: its flamboyant forms, staged in surreal settings, included its Signature glasses, a twist on a classic coupe in multiple colourways (from $360), and a delectable pear- and lavender-coloured cake stand ($1,410).The British Glass Biennale in the West Midlands later this month will also deliver another rainbow. Phoebe Stubbs, founder of Gather Glass (London’s last remaining women-led glassblowing studio), has produced a bold trio of vessels called Push It, after the 1986 hit Salt-N-Pepa song. Celia Dowson’s Reflections Platter (£1,760) combines a subtly tinted cup and vase with a platter in cast glass, and Wales-based Neil Wilkin’s mango-coloured, table-top sculpture features sprawling free-blown petals in an ode to a flower in bloom.
