Mid-Century Danish Ceramic vase by Svend Aage Holm Sørensen for Søholm, 1950s

About the Item

A stylish 1950s vase produced by Søholm in Denmark. This model is from the Burgundia series which was in production from 1956 until the end of the 1960s. The form was designed by Holm Sørensen and the decor is by Svend Åge Jensen. Søholm or Søholm Stentøj (Soholm Stoneware) dates back to the first half of the 17th century and the Danish island, Bornholm, which is famous for its pottery and fine ceramics. Søholm was founded in 1835, in Rønne, Bornholm by Herman Sonne Wolffsen (1811-1887) and Edvard Christian Sonne, making it one of the oldest ceramic factories on Bornholm, until its closure in 1996. The name, Søholm, originated from the factory where the two founders formerly were employed, a faience factory near Copenhagen, in 1828-1839 (leased in 1834). In the mid-20th century, Søholm produced a huge range of stoneware with different designs and shapes. One of the more famous stoneware series today, is the Burgundia Series – an exquisite series of stoneware with black matte glaze and graphical patterns decoration in pastel colors (white, light blue and light yellow).
