Mid 20th Century White Ceramic Chamotte Vase by Gunnar Nylund for Rorstrand

Description

Exquisite creation by Gunnar Nylund ( 1914-1997) during his tenure as artistic director of Rorstrand from 1932 through the 1950s. The vase has a glossy white glaze over a rough rustic body creating a smooth touch but a brutal look to the piece. The Chamotte line was first introduced in the late 1930s. Stamped on bottom with RORSTRAND, 3 crowns logo, SVERIGE, CHAMOTTE and NYLUND.
Measurements: 2 1/2 inches diameter x 4 1/2 inches high.
