About the Item

A striking and sculptural fireplace screen designed by Swedish artist Olle Hermansson and produced by Husqvarna in the 1960s. Crafted in solid cast iron, this piece is a bold example of Swedish brutalist design, characterized by its raw textures and mythological imagery. The relief features a powerful Norse-inspired scene with a horned warrior, hammer in hand, lightning bolts, and symbolic elements in a dynamic, storybook composition – a perfect fusion of folklore and modernism. Dimensions: Width: 46 cm Height: 47 cm Marked with Hermansson’s signature initials, this is more than a functional fireside piece – it’s an expressive work of art and a collector’s item for those who appreciate Scandinavian craftsmanship and brutalist aesthetics.
