Conny Walther Candle Holders

Danish, 1931-2020

Conny Walther (1931-2020) learned the potter's trade in the large industrial ceramic factories while studying at the School of Decorative Arts in Copenhagen until 1951. She was the first to learn the techniques of high-fired earthenware at the Saxbo factory between 1948 and 1949. The next step for Conny Walther was to go to the Kähler factory for two years of experimentation after her studies in 1951-52; immediately after this period of training, she opened her own workshop in Kirkerod and developed a unique plastic vocabulary. She then began to work with stoneware, which she freely decorated with a lively expressionist glaze.
