Medium Modernist Vase by Andersson & Johansson, 1940s–50s

Price700 €
One-of-a-kind piece
A medium-sized ceramic vase by Andersson & Johansson of Höganäs, Sweden, 1940s–50s. Handmade in earthenware, its deeply textured surface is layered with leaf-like relief and finished in a soft, semi-gloss cream glaze flecked with brown. The tactile, almost sculptural surface catches the light beautifully, giving the piece a quiet presence in any room. It works well on its own with a full flower arrangement or as a small floor vase. Andersson & Johansson was founded in 1909 in Höganäs, a coastal town in southern Sweden with a long ceramic tradition. What began as a small workshop grew into one of Sweden’s most recognised potteries, later known as Höganäs Keramik. This vase reflects the firm’s Scandinavian Modern period, when handmade forms and natural textures mattered more than ornament.
