Хоть и утверждается, что Пер Люткен был одним из самых талантливых стеклодувов на датской фабрике «Holmegaard», сам он никогда не прикладывался к стеклодувным трубкам. Более того, придя на завод 25-летним выпускником копенгагенской Школы искусств и ремесел, он не имел ровным счетом никакого опыта в деле создания художественного стекла. Тем не менее, уже через год он был назначен художественным руководителем предприятия и занимал эту должность до своей смерти, став автором более трех тысяч работ и заслужив звание «датского мастера стекольного искусства». Не будучи стеклодувом, он вместе с тем прекрасно понимал возможности стекла и мастеров, работавших с ним, и требовал от своих подчиненных соответствующих результатов. Когда они жаловались на сложность его замыслов, Люткен невозмутимо отвечал: «А кто вам сказал, что будет легко?»

В 1970 г. Люткен создал одну из самых известных в Дании серий работ – коллекцию стаканов и бокалов «No. 5». Как и Коко Шанель, в начале 1920-х гг. отказавшаяся от вычурных форм, характерных для изделий Рене Лалика, чтобы флакон ее духов был «невидимым, эталоном прозрачности», Люткен сделал выбор в пользу лаконичного и вместе с тем узнаваемого объема. Как и флаконы для духов Шанель, бокалы и графины «No. 5» в неизменном виде производятся до сих пор. Правда, в отличие от флаконов Шанель, бокалы и графины Люткена выдуваются вручную.

Even though some sources refer to Per Lütken as one of Holmegaard’s most talented glassblowers, he never mouth-blew any of his designs. What’s more, when he joined Holmegaard at the age of 25 having graduated from Copenhagen’s School of Danish Arts and Crafts, Lütken had zero experience with glassmaking. Yet, just one year later, he was appointed Holmegaard’s creative director and stayed in this role until his demise in 1988 creating over 3,000 designs and earning the title “master of Danish glass design”. Having no hands-on experience, he was endowed with an extraordinary sense of the material and the possibilities it offered and was thus extremely demanding of factory’s glassmakers. Hearing their complaints that his designs were much too complex to execute, he would simply say, “Well, who said things were supposed to be easy?”

In 1970, Lütken came up with No. 5, one of Denmark’s most acclaimed series of glassware. Just like Coco Chanel, who felt the bottle of Chanel No. 5 should be “pure transparency” and “invisible” and ultimately chose against highly intricate bottle designs the likes of which were produced by René Lalique at the time, Lütken conceived the No. 5 collection as a series of minimalist, yet immediately recognizable pieces. Just like Chanel No. 5 bottles, Lütken’s No. 5 glassware has remained intact to this day and is still in demand. Unlike Chanel No. 5 bottles, however, Lütken’s glasses are all mouth-blown by his colleagues…

"For Telegram, accountability has always been a problem, which is why it was so popular even before the full-scale war with far-right extremists and terrorists from all over the world," she told AFP from her safe house outside the Ukrainian capital. On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations. "The result is on this photo: fiery 'greetings' to the invaders," the Security Service of Ukraine wrote alongside a photo showing several military vehicles among plumes of black smoke. Continuing its crackdown against entities allegedly involved in a front-running scam using messaging app Telegram, Sebi on Thursday carried out search and seizure operations at the premises of eight entities in multiple locations across the country. Either way, Durov says that he withdrew his resignation but that he was ousted from his company anyway. Subsequently, control of the company was reportedly handed to oligarchs Alisher Usmanov and Igor Sechin, both allegedly close associates of Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
