Bio:
Gunnar Nylund was one of the central figures of Swedish ceramic modernism and served as artistic director at Rörstrand from the 1930s onward. His work is defined by organic silhouettes, restrained glazes, and a refined balance between functional purpose and sculptural expression. Pieces from this period are today regarded as key examples of Nordic ceramic design.
