Beautiful ceramic bowl by Swedish artist Carl Harry Stålhane made at Rörstrand atelje in the 1950’s. The bowl has a beautiful glaze which gives a beautiful structure to the bowl. The glaze is a mixture of dark gray, brown and black which is a perfect detail to the bowl. The bowl is in good condition with no chips or cracks. The bowl is the perfect detail for any style of interior from a traditional Scandinavian style of interior to a more modern style of interior. Carl-Harry Ingemar Stålhane, born 15 December 1920 in Mariestad, died 11 April 1990 in Lidköping, was a Swedish ceramist, designer, sculptor and painter. Carl-Harry Stålhane was the son of the merchant Carl Vilhelm Hilarius Stålhane and Agnes Elisabeth Lundgren and from 1948 married to Birgit Ingegerd Dahlin. Stålhane studied faience painting at Rörstrand's Porslinsfabrik and, after passing tests, was employed as a faience painter at the factory in 1939, but in the mid-1940s he was given the opportunity to try working with the rotary disc, which resulted in his further training at Grünewald's painting school 1944–1946 and for the sculptor Ossip Zadkine at the Académie Colarossi in Paris 1947–1948. After the Paris period, he got to work with design and he first created stoneware in a Chinese classical style with a certain connection to Gunnar Nylund's objects. Through stages of faience painting and ornate glaze decoration, in the 1950s he reached a compact and closed form of chamotte stoneware, including vases and abstract sculptures with eruptively mottled earthen glazes. At the age of 30, he became something of a master of stoneware and took over as leading artist from Gunnar Nylund. In the early 1960s he worked with heavier objects that were often modeled rather than turned, and his square forms become more common. He also designed consumables for serial production, among other things he designed the series Victoria which was shown in London in 1959 and together with Aune Laukanen who was responsible for the decor, he created the Spanish-inspired series Torro. He also designed a stoneware set...
