TheStrömbergfactory was founded in Sweden in 1876 asLindfors. It was bought by Edward Strömberg in 1933, who previously ranOrreforsand laterEdaglassworks. The name was changed toStrömbergshyttan(\"Strömberg\'s cabin\"or\"hut\"). Edward worked with his wifeGerda Strömberg(a designer), and other workers who followed them from Eda, includingKnut Bergqvist, who became the master glassblower at Strömberg from 1933 - 1955. Also at the factory was Edward & Gerda\'s son,Eric Strömberg, who took over the company when Edward died in 1945, with his wifeAstaas designer. Asta took over when Eric died in 1960. Other designers wereGunnar Nylund(1952 - 1975), andRune Strandin the 1960\'s. The company was bought by Orrefors in 1976, and closed in 1979. It should be noted thatStudioglas Strömbergshyttanis an unrelated factory, that was set up in 1987.

Strömberg glass is usually signed, with sometimes\"S-hyttan\", along with a letter and number code. The letter indicates the item type, eg B for blomglas (vases), and the number is the model number. A full list of letter codes can be found in thecatalogues.
