Carl-Harry Stålhane vase

This ceramic vase was designed by Carl-Harry Stålhane and produced by Rörstrand in Sweden during the 1960s. It features a slender, conical form with a subtly textured surface, finished in a delicate off-white glaze with speckled variations that create an organic and soft visual effect.

Carl-Harry Stålhane was a highly influential Swedish ceramic designer known for his refined modernist forms and mastery of glazing techniques. Serving as artistic director at Rörstrand, he played a crucial role in defining the company’s mid-century production, balancing sculptural elegance with practical design. His work often reflects a synthesis of Scandinavian minimalism and inspiration drawn from Asian pottery traditions.

This vase exemplifies the mid-century Scandinavian design ethos through its understated form and expertly crafted surface. The speckled glaze adds a tactile dimension, elevating it to a refined decorative object.

The vase measures 8 cm in diameter and 31 cm in height (3.1 x 12.2 inches).
