The 18th century beaker-shaped drinking glasses are very rare. Occasionally, you can see a specimen at quality auctions in Stockholm. A few glasses are also preserved in Swedish museum collections.
The glasses are similar in shape to silver goblets from the same period. They have the same trumpet shape, they have the same folded mouth rim and the clearly marked heel is also similar to the foot of the silver goblets. There is no mistaking that beaker glasses are a more everyday version of silver goblets, even though glass goblets, like porcelain plates, were already a great luxury in the 18th century. What is surprising, however, is that so few beakers have survived, compared with, for example, wine glasses on feet. Perhaps this is because glass goblets were considered simpler than glasses on Our goblet glasses are hand-blown and they were used more frequently and therefore broke more often.
Our beakers are hand-blown and therefore as individual as the originals. The glass mass varies with uneven thickness, streaks, stripes and sometimes blisters. The dot mark under the heel shows where the glassblower’s pipe was located. The folded rim is also a typical 18th-century detail.
Available in three sizes. A large one for beer or juice. A medium size for wine, water or milk. And a small nubb glass. All three glasses are suitable as vases. The first tussilion in the nubb glass, a bunch of white or blue anemones in the wine glass, or a bouquet of summer flowers in the beer glass.

Highly absorbent cloth in full linen. Linen dries faster than cotton or synthetics and avoids the typically sour scent of harvest cloth. The cloth is woven from unbleached linen yarn using the Cypress technique, a weaving technique that produces a looser and more flexible cloth than modern ones. Unbleached linen also absorbs moisture much better than bleached linen. The cloth has a sturdy sewn-on hanger, which makes it easy to hang on a hook after use.
Because the Gysing cloth is woven in a traditional shuttle loom with the same weft thread running back and forth in the weave – not cut at the edges as in modern robot looms – it has a real selvedge and the cloth lasts longer.
In fact, the Gysinget cloth is like an old-fashioned coarse linen towel, the kind that used to hang in barns, and for those who need a coarse towel, it can of course still be used as such. With its discreet goose eye pattern and real selvedge, it is also useful as a tablecloth. Few textiles are smoother and shinier after mangling than Gysingetrasan. Otherwise, Gysinget cloth is primarily designed for floor cutting. Because it is large and sturdy, you can soak and rinse the floors much more effectively than with small, modern cloths. It is also excellent in the shower, as a mat in the bathroom and generally in wet areas where you want to keep dry.

Lace or thread curtains were a very common import in Sweden from the late 19th century until the Second World War. Many patterns, like this one, were woven in Scotland, where there is a strong tradition of patterned cotton curtains. This curtain comes from the old Scottish collection and is still woven at one of the few remaining weaving mills. The curtain is made of the finest natural colored cotton and magnificently patterned with roses in vases, garlands, ribbons and borders. A typical hall curtain with a lavish pattern, suitable for the finest rooms in the house.

Lace or thread curtains were a very common import in Sweden from the late 19th century until the Second World War. The country of origin of lace curtains has almost always been Scotland, and the only Swedish lace curtain factory that existed was also run by Scots. The character of this early 20th century curtain is, unusually, more of the type of delicate, sparse embroidery than grand lace, and the pattern is very reminiscent of 18th century lace and the diagonal floral pattern of the Rococo, an era that early 20th century interior designers often drew inspiration from. The simple, romantic impression is emphasized by, in addition to the sparsely scattered flower sprigs, also the thinly “embroidered” edge. The character is thus 18th century romantic, without being pretentious and the curtain fits perfectly both in period interiors and in less period rooms. The curtain is woven exclusively for Gysinge on mid-19th century looms at Scotland’s oldest curtain weaving mill.

Lace or thread curtains were a very common import in Sweden from the late 19th century until the Second World War. Many patterns, like this one, were woven in Scotland, where there is still a strong and living tradition of patterned curtains made from real cotton. This curtain is still woven on old looms in one of the few remaining weaving mills. The curtain is made of the finest ivory white cotton and magnificently patterned with roses in vases, garlands, ribbons and borders. A typical sumptuous 19th century pattern, suitable for the finest rooms in the house.
Machine-woven lace curtains were once considered the ultimate luxury (as opposed to simple home-woven ones!) and those who could really afford it would also buy curtains that were far too long and let them hang out on the floor, much like a bridal veil. The most famous home, where this type of hanging still lives on in unbroken tradition, is Karen Blixen’s Rungstedlund, just north of Copenhagen.
