Midcentury Stoneware Bowl by Gunnar Nylund for Rörstrand, Sweden, 1950s

The factory had at the time lost its former leading market position, but Nylund’s efforts gave it a great reboot. He designed ceramic kitchenware...

Valentine Schlegel Ceramic Vase
Located in New York, NY

She was born in the coastal town of Séte and studied at l’École Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Montpellier where she began developing her interest in the medium of drawing.
