She studied ceramics at the University of Arts, Crafts and Design (Konstfack). She’s the designer behind several successful collections at Kosta Boda, such as Contrast & Line - where the latter is one of Sweden’s most sold tableware of all time. She has been awarded with the Excellent Swedish Form award in 1992 and 1994 for her design, and became the winner of Swedish Glass in 1983. Anna Ehrner's distinctive style is characterized by organic, sculptural forms, combined with bold, vibrant colors. She has used a variety of glassworking techniques, including blowing, molding and hot forming, to create unique and innovative pieces. Ehrner's creations have been widely recognized and have received many prestigious awards. Her pieces have been exhibited in museums and galleries around the world. “For me, creativity emerges in the blowing room. This is where the glass is conceived, where it's fashioned and comes alive. I want to work with the glass, not against it. In my designs, I try to follow along with the melted glass, with the sheer power, although I try at the same time to identify the simple and subtle.” – Anna Ehrner
