About the Item
A beautiful stoneware vase with amazing glaze.
Made by Marianne Westman for Rorstrand, Sweden, 1960s.
Excellent condition.
Incised signature "MW" and "R" för Rörstrand.
Marianne Westman (1928-2017) was born in Falun in central Sweden. She started ceramics studies at the prestigious University College of Arts, Crafts and Design in Stockholm, in 1946. After graduation in 1950, Marianne was handpicked by the famous Rorstrand ceramic factory, in Lidköping.
Marianne was only 22 when she started working for Rorstrand in Lidkoping. This was the company’s golden age and its porcelain manufacture was extremely successful abroad. A team of recognized artists were already in place, like Carl-Harry Stalhane and Hertha Bengtsson.
During the Rorstrand years from 1950 to 1971, Marianne was often quick to identify new trends and production methods. Her distinctive, lighthearted designs for household items, earned her a lasting place in Nordic design history. She was even called the "porcelain mom" by the Rorstrand workforce, because of her many porcelain successes. Marianne's designs, with successes like Mon Amie, Picknick and Red Top, represented almost half of Rorstrand's sales during their heyday.
In the 1960s, Westman expanded her range into artistic pieces made of stoneware, chamotte and iron. Glazes were thick and complex, with iron flowers and coarse structures. Shapes were simple, and the feeling rustic, yet elegant.
