Founded originally as Lindfors in 1876 in Småland, Sweden, the glassworks was renamed Strömbergshyttan in 1933 after being taken over by former Orrefors glassmaker Edward Strömberg and his designer wife, Gerda. The studio became famous for its signature bluish-silver tinted glass, showcasing sleek modern forms created by key designers including Gerda, Asta Strömberg, Gunnar Nylund, and Rune Strand. Following a devastating factory fire in 1973, the business faced severe financial strain and was sold to Orrefors in 1976 before permanently closing in 1979.
