Of particular note is his iconic "Björkstubben" series, which impressively reflects the Scandinavian connection to nature. The collection features glassware whose form and structure are reminiscent of birch bark, underscoring Montelin's innovative and nature-inspired design approach.

His ability to capture the beauty of the Swedish landscape in glass makes his works timeless and unique. "Björkstubben" remains a collector's item that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, perfectly reflecting Montelin's artistic vision.
