Rut Bryk, Stoneware Gold relief heat-transferred flowers, Arabia, Finland 1960's
By Rut Bryk
Located in Tokyo, 13
Rut Bryk , Stoneware Gold relief heat-transferred flowers, Arabia, Finland 1960's Impressed "BRYK"
Born to an Austrian father, Feliks, and a Finnish mother, Aino, Rut Bryk (1916-1999) spent her childhood in Stockholm. Influenced by her father, a butterfly researcher and painter, she became familiar with nature and art. As a student, she dreamed of becoming an architect, but gave up the idea because of opposition from others. She turned to graphic design, and his delicate and poetic view of the world caught the attention of the Arabia Pottery, where she joined as an artist in the Fine Arts Department in 1942.
This is a small gilt block relief piece by Rut Bryk, an artist who worked for the Finnish company Arabia.
In the late 50's and early 60's, she produced a series of relief works composed of tiles and blocks for walls and floors, such as city series and icons. The plate is painted with gold paint, and a rose pattern is printed on it by heat transfer.
This gilded and heat-transferred rose motif seems to have been produced since 1960, and the same motif is also used on ash trays and other items.
In the late 1960s, the artist moved to more abstract relief work, and this gilt and rose piece was made between 1960 and 1965.
The same type of blocks are also found inlaid in the "Adam and Eve," a wall piece created by laying down blocks of various sizes, indicating that the blocks were also used in religious motifs such as Christian icons...

Vase Designed by Tapio Wirkkala, Finland, 1957
By Tapio Wirkkala
Located in Stockholm, SE
Vase designed by Tapio Wirkkala,
Sweden, 1957.
Sterling silver.
Dimensions:
H: 24 cm/ 9 3/8"
W: 9 cm/ 3 1/2"
D: 4 cm/ 1 1/2"
Tapio Wirkkala (1915-1985) can be described as one of the icons of Finnish design and a symbol of the international success of post-war Finnish design. Tapio Wirkkala studied sculpture at the Helsinki Central School of Industrial Design from 1933 until 1936, but he was also a self-studied artist in many areas, including glass design. His success as a glass artist began in 1946 when he designed one of his most famous works, the Kantarelli vase, for Iittala. Wirkkala gained worldwide success in 1951 at the Milan Triennial, where he received three Grand Prix awards: for the exhibition architecture, glass design and wooden sculptures. Tapio Wirkkala felt a deep relationship with nature and his absolute favourite spot was located in Finland's deepest forests. From the beautiful landscape, Tapio Wirkkala could find inspiration for his works, often characterised by organic shapes. Leaves, birds, ice and water are recurring themes in his design.
Tapio Wirkkala was also a furniture designer and a sculptor. He started his career as a sculptor in the 1930s but abandoned the traditional sculpture in the post-war years – in the early 1950s, alongside with other works, he started to develop an entirely new relationship with sculpture and a new technique to be used. The result was a series of unique plywood sculptures which combined form and movement in the vibrant, densely lineated surface of plywood. Wirkkala’s sculptures represented exceptional abstractism and gave Finnish sculpture...
