ABOUT PRODUCTID 15984
The double vase model 3481, designed by Einer Johansen for Søholm Stoneware in Denmark, originates from the 1960s and exemplifies the organic Scandinavian mid-century modern aesthetic. Crafted from stoneware in a warm, creamy beige with gradients of light brown and sandy tones, the vase features darker brown highlights atop the pronounced raised nodules. Its construction comprises two bulbous, almost spherical joined segments, each topped with a narrow, gently off-vertical neck. The surface exhibits dense, rounded protrusions, particularly in the upper sections—evoking the texture of a sea urchin. A matte to satin glaze with subtle sheen envelops the entire piece, reflecting the high standard of Danish ceramic craftsmanship from the era. The original Søholm factory label is present, confirming its provenance. The vase is in excellent, nearly original condition with only minimal traces of age and no visible cracks or chips. This vase, as if echoing the shores of Bornholm in the 1960s, narrates a fascination with the Nordic coastlines and the marine world—a testament to postwar Scandinavian design’s pivot toward biomorphic forms. The sea urchin-inspired relief conjures seaside strolls, while the earthy hues evoke the play of sand and stone in
