Sejdel

Sejdel, made for Oskar II’s visit to Kronobergshed, 1893. Cylinder with an ear. Printed with enamel decor. In the middle, a round field with weapons, on the side there are oval fields with buildings and tents. Between the fields flags, musical instruments, painting and weapons. Text: “Kronoberg’s heath. The jubilee of the regiment.” Uncoloured clear glass. The decor white. See the pressure log M 43447 (for the manufacture of castings for printing this decor) Inscribed in the Main Catalogue 1951. From “Kosta 1742 - 1942” pages 113 and 114. In the 1880s it began to become a much needed commodity, with a matt, burnt image or text decorated the glass, and also Kosta raised this species. The glass painter Anton Raab carried out the work so, that he first cut the picture in the boxwood. An imprint was taken in clay, which was burned, and from this another in gelatin pulp for the pressure. The glass was rolled over it with fernissa on the stamp, which was then transferred to the glass surface. This was puddled with a light melted, white enamel paint, after which the object was burned in a muffle furnace. In this way, all the servis glasses, sejdles, and hundreds of thousands of glass lampglass, were found in the 1895 year. Function: Memory objects
