How Hurricane Boule Petite is Made
Discover the charm of the Hurricane Boule Petite by Skogsberg & Smart — a smaller interpretation of the iconic design, crafted with the very same precision, care, and artisanal expertise as its larger counterpart.
Each Hurricane Boule Petite is created using our own exclusive iron moulds, individually carved by hand. Despite its more delicate size, the process demands the same level of skills — a finely tuned sensitivity that only experienced glassmakers possess. Every movement must be exact, every proportion carefully judged.
The artistry lies in mastering the balance of molten glass. Skilled craftsmen work with precise combinations of coloured and clear glass to achieve the signature Boule expression — a subtle interplay of depth, transparency, and light. For lighter tones, only coloured glass is used, requiring even greater control to achieve the desired clarity and hue.
Once shaped, each piece is carefully refined and finished by hand, ensuring the same distinctive character and quality found in the full-sized Hurricane Boule. No two are ever exactly alike — each carries its own quiet individuality.
As a final touch, a finely crafted brass cup is hand-applied and secured with a transparent adhesive specially developed for glass, creating a seamless and elegant holder for a freestanding candle. This detail adds both function and a refined sense of luxury.
Each Hurricane Boule Petite is then thoughtfully presented in a gift box of two pieces, making it a perfect gift — a small yet exquisite expression of craftsmanship, design, and timeless Scandinavian elegance.
