Bio:
Tilgmans Keramik of Gothenburg was active from the 1940s to the 1970s and became known for its rustic and colourful vases featuring relief and lava-effect glazes. The workshop experimented with combinations of matte and glossy surfaces, creating a dynamic and tactile finish. Tilgmans’ works are today sought-after collectibles in Swedish mid-century ceramics.
