Nanny Still's turquoise 'SV' series, produced by Riihimäen Lasi Oy, dates from the very beginning of her career in 1950.

Still's early works for Riihimäki are influenced by Organic Modernism; a predominantly Finnish design movement supremely demonstrated by their designers of glass.The movement, observed in the few years surrounding 1950, was sparked by Gunnel Nyman who inspired a new generation of designers in Finland to look towards nature and experiment with modernity in a soft and abstract manner. This bowl offers not only an early example of Nanny Still's work, but also a tangible insight into this pivotal moment in the unique history of Finnish glass.
