Pottery Auction

Skånes Auktionsverk proudly presents an exquisite display of Swedish ceramic art in their upcoming Ceramics Auction. With 188 lots in the catalog, this event features some of the most celebrated names in the field, alongside works by artisans perhaps known only to more discerning connoisseurs.

Among the prominent artists, you will find renowned figures such as Hans Hedberg, Hertha Hillfon, Berndt Friberg, Lisa Larson, Åke Holm, Astrid Anderberg, Gunnar Nylund, Anna-Lisa Thomson, Stig Lindberg, and Ingrid Herrlin. Herrlin’s pieces include an array of ceramic apples, potatoes, and onions, as well as her remarkably lifelike tree trunks. Expected highlights include a whimsical Troll Orchestra by Carla Holm, a three-spouted floor vase by Claes Thell, biblical figures by Åke Holm, and Hertha Hillfon’s tender portrait of her daughter, Maria.

Of particular note is Lisa Larson's charming figure Rosa, casually lounging in stark contrast to the more disciplined forms of Carl-Harry Stålhane. The auction also includes a few notable contributions from neighboring countries, most notably the expressive works of Jais Nielsen.

Welcome to Skånes Auktionsverk to explore and acquire these fine pieces of ceramic art!
