Hagenglas by Ami Kealoha
Hagenglas is the studio of Danish glass artist Rikke Hagen. The studio is situated just outside Copenhagen in Hilleroed, near the beautiful Frederiksborg Castle.
Rikke's glass is often dusted with various colored glass dust, lending a unique texture and feel to many of her products. (Click above images for detail.) In addition to crafting flower vases, small boxes, drinking glasses, etc., she also works on art installations and pieces, some which can be seen at the current exhibition, " Glass," at the Danish Museum of Art and Design.
Rikke also runs the design office Copen Hagen where she has done product design for Normann Copenhagen, Holmegaard and others.

Menu Wine Decanter
Further to Leti's post, whether it's from box or bottle (as I prefer) red wine invariably tastes better if it's decanted, thanks to the oxygenation that occurs. One of the most attractive decanters I've come across is this one in glass and steel, designed for Danish company Menu by Louise Christ Frederiksen. Besides looking good, the broad base significantly improves aeration. Menu also has...

Riedel Decanters
New from the generations-old family glassware-makers Riedel, this series of decanters takes its inspiration from birds for a collection that's as striking as it is functional. Designed by Maximillian Riedel (also responsible for leading the stemless revolution) and his father Georg and handmade by artisans in their Austrian factory, the leaded crystal vessels are all aerodynamic lines and dramatic dimensions. While the Swan (above...

Accelerate Sofa
Taking its cues from aeronautical design (at least that's our educated guess), Danish designer Phillip Grass' Accelerator Sofa is one of his latest sleekly futuristic furniture concepts. With its jet engine-shaped armrests, the sexy seat is the grown-up version of a race car bed. via Core77...

The new Beaker Juice Glass from cb2 is another great example of reworking the classic design of disposable everyday items by using high-quality materials.
