Unique Oxblood Glazed Stoneware Pieces, By Henning Nilsson, Set of 3
By Henning Nilsson
Located in Grythyttan, SE
This unique stoneware set comprises a vase, jar, and plate, all featuring an oxblood glaze, crafted by Henning Nilsson (1907 - 1993) of Höganäs. Each piece bears Nilsson's incised signature.
The vase, with its baluster shape and concave upper and lower parts, showcases a blend of sand-colored and dark red oxblood glaze. The jar, broad and cylindrical, exhibits remnants of red oxblood glaze on reliefed rings, with visible red drops at the base. Meanwhile, the plate, predominantly sand-colored, boasts a striking splash of dark red oxblood glaze in its center, extending towards the edges.
Vase
Measures: Height: 18 cm, Diameter: 9 cm
Incised: "Höganäs, HN"
Jar
Measures: Height: 13,5 cm, Diameter: 11,5 cm
Incised: "20-5-65, Henning Nilsson, Höganäs"
Plate
Measures: Height: 3 cm, Diameter: 18,7 cm
Incised: "10-7-60, Henning Nilsson, Höganäs"
Henning Nilsson's mastery of glazes, particularly his unique oxblood glaze, distinguishes these pieces. His experimentation with glazes and forms resulted in creations that are both visually captivating and historically significant.
The details about Nilsson's background and his association with the Höganäs ceramic tradition is very interesting. The provenance of these pieces lies in Höganäs, where Nilsson established his workshop and experimented with ceramics. These pieces are highly representative of Nilsson's signature style, which is usually characterized by his innovative oxblood glazes.
ABOUT OXBLOOD GLAZE
Oxblood glaze, originating in 18th-century Chinese porcelain, is a deep red ceramic glaze, also known as Sang de boeuf glaze. Developed during the Kangxi reign, it's part of a series of "flambé" glazes marked by varying effects. Primarily made with copper oxide in a reducing atmosphere, it was produced with a variety of shades of colour and as well as mottling, streaked effects in the glaze, which often fades to white at the top of pieces, and conversely thickens around the shoulders of vases and at the foot, which is often not fully covered by the glaze. There is often crackle, and a greenish tinge at the edges of the glazed area, where the glaze is thin. All of these were considered desirable effects. Generally the glaze is only applied to the outside of closed shapes, the inside and rim left with a clear glaze.
ABOUT HENNING NILSSON
Henning Sigfrid Nilsson, born on October 7, 1907, in Välinge, Sweden, and passed away on January 14, 1993, in Höganäs, was a distinguished Swedish ceramist.
Henning embarked on his artistic journey by crafting small stone playing balls, which he fired in a brick kiln and sold to his close acquaintances. During the tumult of the Second World War, he diversified his endeavors, establishing a tailoring, laundry, and antique shop in Höganäs to augment his income. It was through this antique trade that he encountered the sculptor Robert...
