The most prominent figure in mid-century Swedish cut glass was Vicke Lindstrand. His cased glass designs for Kosta Boda in the early 1950s use textural ribbed effects and spiraling stripes. Lindstrand's various talents also stretched to book illustration, and this can be seen in the designs he drafted for Kosta Soda's talented engravers, who used cutting, engraving, and acid–etching techniques. Some of the most accomplished specimens use a combination of engraving methods. Lindstrand's Bath vase, for example, features a milky delineation of a figure stepping into water represented by sharp, clean-cut concentric circles.
