About the Item

Set of 3 wonderful stoneware vessels handmade by Danish ceramics artist Bente Hansen at her own studio in the 1970s. Each can be used as a stand alone vase, but they can also be arranged as a playful sculpture. These examples are from the very early beginning of Bente Hansens artistic work. Bente Hansen’s works are a thoughtful reflection on geometry and colour. She was educated at Denmark’s Design School (former ”Skolen for Brugskunst”) in 1960-64. She has been attached to Royal Copenhagen and Bing & Grøndahl in the 1960-80s. Her work is exhibited in prestigious institutions throughout the world such as London’s Victoria and Albert Museum, Stockholm’s National museum, US Palmer Museum or Düsseldorf’s Hetjens Ceramic Museum. She has received wide acclaim and numerous awards for her work and has been granted the Danish Design Award repeatedly. Bente Hansen is a member of the International Academy of Ceramics.
