Scandinavian Modern Squared & Fluted Brass Vase By Gunnar Ander for Ystad-Metall
Located in Grythyttan, SE
This mid-century vase, designed by Gunnar Ander for Ystad-Metall, exemplifies Scandinavian Modern design from the 1960s. Made of brass, the vase features a distinctive squared and conical shape, resting on a circular base. The design is enhanced by three vertical flutes on each side, adding subtle detail to its clean lines. Handcrafted in Ystad, Sweden, it bears the engraved markings "Ystad-Metall" and "MADE IN SWEDEN" on the underside, confirming its authenticity. This vase is a fine representation of the craftsmanship and aesthetic principles of its time. ABOUT GUNNAR ANDER Gunnar Ander (1908–1976) was a Swedish designer known for his artistic talent and significant contributions to Scandinavian design. Born in Lidköping, Ander showed early promise, illustrating for a local newspaper as a teenager before studying at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm. In the late 1940s or early 1950s, he joined Ystad-Metall, where he created some of the company’s most iconic designs, particularly his brass candle holders, which remain highly sought after today. Ander also worked for Lindshammar Glassworks and was a key designer at Scandia Present...

Antique and Vintage Decorative Objects for Sale: Find Vases, Bowls, Boxes and Clocks on 1stDibs

Every time you move into a house or an apartment — or endeavor to refresh the home you’ve lived in for years — life for that space begins anew. The right home accent, be it the simple placement of a decorative bowl on a shelf or a ceramic vase for fresh flowers, can transform an area from drab to spectacular. But with so many materials and items to choose from, it’s easy to get lost in the process. The key to styling with antique and vintage decorative objects is to work toward making a happy home that best reflects your personal style. 

Ceramics are a versatile addition to any home. If you’ve amassed an assortment of functional pottery over the years, think of your mugs and salad bowls as decorative objects, ideal for displaying in a glass cabinet. Vintage ceramic serveware can pop along white open shelving in your dining area, while large stoneware pitchers paired with woven baskets or quilts in an open cupboard can introduce a rustic farmhouse-style element to your den.

Translucent decorative boxes or bowls made of an acrylic plastic called Lucite — a game changer in furniture that’s easy to clean and lasts long — are modern accents that are neutral enough to dress up a coffee table or desktop without cluttering it. If you’re showcasing pieces from the past, a vintage jewelry box for displaying your treasures can spark conversation: Where is the jewelry box from? Is there a story behind it?

Abstract sculptures or an antique vessel for your home library can draw attention to your book collection and add narrative charm to the most appropriate of corners. There’s more than one way to style your bookcases, and decorative objects add a provocative dynamic. “I love magnifying glasses,” says Alex Assouline, global vice president of luxury publisher Assouline, of adding one’s cherished objects to a home library. “They are both useful and decorative. Objects really elevate libraries and can also make them more personal.”

To help with personalizing your space and truly making it your own, find an extraordinary collection of decorative objects on 1stDibs.
