At the 1867 Paris Exposition Universelle
Very handsome brass table lamp designed by Paavo Tynell as a special commission for the Hotel Vaakuna in the famous Sokos building in Helsinki
using the ashy Danish clay she creates ancient feeling pieces that come alive in the light
Equal parts art object and functional design
Illums Bolighus was Denmark's first department store
Kähler Glazed Chamotte Bowl lidded box At the 1867 Paris ExpositionThis pretty little vase has a beautifully layered, high fired glaze in deep teal blue with subtle tonal variation, characteristic of mid century Khler ceramics. The surface shifts from saturated gloss to a dry, iron rich break at the shoulder, revealing the warmth of the natural clay beneath. Incised wave motifs catch and deepen the glaze, creating movement and depth, while a fine, natural crazing adds a soft, time earned patina. I love these pieces
