  • EXCLUSIVE WORK
Designed by Gunnar Nylund during his celebrated tenure as artistic director at Rörstrand, this elegant pitcher vase represents the pinnacle of mid-century Swedish studio stoneware. Standing 20 cm tall, the piece features a slender, graceful neck that flows seamlessly into an integrated loop handle. The tapered body is enveloped in Nylund’s iconic dark, velvety matte glaze, showcasing delicate tonal striations and a subtle satiny sheen. Its sculpted silhouette and tactile finish make it a standout acquisition for collectors of Scandinavian modernist ceramics. Condition: Excellent vintage condition. Markings: Fully marked to base with incised Rörstrand "R" and three crowns, "GN" signature, and model code "ARL". Dimensions Height: 20 cm (7.9 in)
