Book of Glass: Starman Edition, is a cloth covered box limited to 500 copies. It contains the Book of Glass, a Fine Art print by Bertil in a numbered edition of 60 copies, as well as the sculpture Starman that was produced as part of the celebration of the 60th anniversary of his collaboration with Kosta Boda. Each book is signed by Bertil Vallien. Bertil Vallien, one of Sweden's most beloved and internationally renowned artists and glass designers, looks back on his outstanding sixty-year career in a unique three-volume book, published by Kosta Förlag. The largest of the three books is, as it should be, Book of Glass. It is primarily as a glass artist that Vallien has made a big name for himself for more than half a century, with exhibitions all over the world, represented in museums such as the Metropolitan in New York and the Hermitage in Saint Petersburg, and with world celebrities such as Bill Gates and Elton John among his many collectors worldwide. Book of Glass focuses largely on Bertil Vallien's many international exhibitions over the years, with “hits” in galleries and museums in Warsaw, New York, Chicago and Venice, to name just a few.
