Sigrún Einarsdóttir graduated from the Denmark Academy of Design in 1979. She was the first woman to graduate from this school as a glass designer and the first person to graduate with a glass degree in Iceland. She and her late husband Sören S.Larsen set up their glass studio in 1982. Since the early eighties she has exhibited across the world and been featured in many international publications including New Glass Review published by The Corning Museum of Glass. Although she is no longer blowing glass, she keeps her furnace running for other artists, keeping the craft alive. She continues to make work with other glass techniques, or works with former students to realise her creations.
