Stig Lindberg Unique Oxblood Vase
This textured vase was designed by Stig Lindberg and handcrafted at Gustavsberg's art studio in 1981.
The miniature vase is part of an extensive series of unique handmade objects which feature applied underglaze surface patterns. Whilst the texture is typical of Lindberg's unique works, this vase features an unconventional collar of impressed floral motifs. This unexpected decoration, stamped into the wet clay, indicates a small development in Lindberg's very late works for Gustavsberg where he returned to motifs for which he was known during the illustrative period of the 1950's.
