About Per Lutken:
Per Lütken (born 10 November 1916, died 10 February 1998) was a Danish designer and glass craftsman. He was trained as a painting and art teacher at Jens Møller-Jensen's Business School 1932-38. Jacob E. Bang had left Holmegaard Glasværk in 1941 and immediately afterwards the glassworks was looking for a new artistic director. Per Lütken came to Holmegaard in 1942 and, like his predecessor, had never worked with glass before. Mouth-blown glass was made in a workshop (glass hut) consisting of a varying number of skilled craftsmen. Per Lütken provided lots of new ideas for new glassworks.

Over the years, Per Lütken acquired a great deal of knowledge and experience about how glass is made and was thus able to develop new techniques or improve old methods. A good example is the "self-inflating technique" (1955), which consists of steam from a wet wooden plate against which the glass is held and the steam inflates the bowl (This method was used for the "Arne" and the "Provence" bowl). Per Lütken was interested in making glass without molds, but in making glass where the centrifugal force determines the shape (e.g. the "Selandia" bowl). This also applies to his Beak Vases from 1952 of a technique known as stick-blown and blowing the glass directly into wet clay (wet clay mold). Finally, Per Lütken developed glass series with colored residual glass and lots of marble effects ("Cascade"). Per Lütken also designed many popular service series, such as "Gyldenholm" (1949), "Copenhagen" (1953), "Clausholm" (1958), "Atlantic" (1962).

Per Lütken designed over 3,000 different types of glass. His ingenuity and respect for the craft have positioned him as one of the world's most prominent and prolific glass designers. Per Lütken participated with Holmegaard in many design exhibitions at home and abroad, just as his designs are represented in museums around the world - including the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

Per Lütken worked at Holmegaard until his death in 1998.
