I am always on the lookout for rare and unique finds like this one. The thrill of discovering such treasures is what keeps me going, and I am thrilled to be able to share this passion with other collectors and enthusiasts. So couldn't believe my luck when I stumbled upon a Vintage Kosta Boda Bertil Vallien art glass Head with Bird & Heart Sculpture Mid Century Modern in a charity shop in Gothenburg. The piece was in excellent condition and I knew I had to have it.
