Holmegaard glassware available from Great Dane Furniture
Great Dane Furniture have a new range of glassware, ‘Reflections of Scandinavia’, from Holmegaard in store.
The history of Holmegaard began in 1823, when Count Christian Danneskiold-Samsøe petitioned for the permission to build a glassworks at Holmegaard Mose. The Count passed away the same year but his widow Countess Henriette Danneskiold-Samsøe pursued the project, making her the woman behind Holmegaard.
