These are a signum of her work as one of Scandinavia’s most talented designer and ceramists, simple clean lines both in the shape of the vases as well as the pattern in the glazing. She is known for a design which is unassuming yet beautiful objects. Her work always holds a very distinct feeling, the patterns simple but they are often graphic, and the colors of the glazing are muted grey with hints of pale blue contrasted with a pale brown, which makes these vases just amazing.
