About the Item
A quietly powerful expression of Danish modernism, this shallow bowl by Eva Stæhr‑Nielsen for Saxbo distills form to its purest essence. Known for her deeply thoughtful and elemental approach, Stæhr‑Nielsen created work that feels both serene and sculptural.
Saxbo was founded in 1929–1930 by civil engineer Nathalie Krebs and Swedish ceramist Gunnar Nylund. It became renowned for pioneering matte stoneware glazes and minimalist, modern silhouettes
Eva Stæhr‑Nielsen joined Saxbo in 1932 and remained its sole full‑time designer until 1951 . Her work is credited with defining the classic “Saxbo style,” blending organic forms with refined glazes.
Crafted in the 1930s–’50s, this lightweight bowl exemplifies Stæhr‑Nielsen’s artist‑designer sensibility. Its elegant, flattened profile and balanced proportions reveal her minimalist philosophy—each curve purposeful, each gesture purposeful. The smooth matte glaze invites tactile engagement, enhancing the sculptural quality without embellishment.
Part of a heritage that influenced Scandinavian ceramics globally, Saxbo pieces—and especially those by Stæhr‑Nielsen—are held in major institutions like the National Museum of Sweden and Oslo’s National Museum.
This bowl is a master class in modern form—quiet yet potent, modest yet monumental. A refined addition for bookshelf, console, or curated table vignettes.
