Strömbergshyttan glassworks was founded in 1876 in Sweden, and was called the Lindfors glassworks until its changed its name in 1933 when Edward Strömberg, who was the former head from Orrefors, leased the company. In 1976 the it was sold to Orrefors. Orrefors closed the company in 1979. Gerda and Asta Strömberg designed most of the glass. Gunnar Nylund was the artistic leader for Strömbergshyttan from 1952-56.

Asta Strömberg started designing glassware for Strömbergshyttan before Gunnar Nylund arrived in 1952. She renewed the range that Gerda Strömberg had created in the 1930s and 40s for the factory. Asta continued to draw models until 1976, when Orrefors took over the management and ownership of Strömbergshyttan.
