Mingus by Vicke Lindstrand is an iconic item of glass from Sweden. It was designed for Orrefors in 1934 and has been mouth-blown in the region of Småland ever since. Mingus was originally launched as a martini pitcher but is used just as often for ice water, iced tea, and other cold beverages. The pitcher has won numerous design awards and often represents Swedish glass design at national and international museums.
