Information

This rare ceramic vase was designed by Stig Lindberg and produced by Gustavsberg in Sweden during the 1950s. Crafted from faience, the vase features a distinctive hourglass-shaped silhouette with gently flaring top and base. Its surface is decorated with a vibrant striped pattern in alternating bands of yellow, black, and white, producing a bold yet balanced visual effect.

Stig Lindberg was one of Sweden’s most renowned designers, celebrated for his innovative ceramic works, playful patterns, and mastery of form. His pieces for Gustavsberg often merged functionality with artistic expression, making them highly collectible. Faience, a tin-glazed earthenware, was favored by Lindberg for its ability to hold bright, vivid colors and intricate patterns.

The vase is in good vintage condition, exhibiting minor wear consistent with its age. The glossy glaze enhances the depth and vibrancy of the colors, while the handcrafted nature of the piece reflects the exceptional craftsmanship associated with Lindberg and Gustavsberg.

The vase measures 8 centimeters in diameter and 25 centimeters in height (3.1 x 9.8 inches).
