Carl-Harry
Stålhane
Stålhane began his artistic career at Rörstrand
in 1939 as an assistant to Gunnar Nylund, together they formed
what came to be an extended period of greatness for Swedish
stoneware. Stålhane´s potential and his initiativ
was early discovered and his ideas were important to keep
up the companys status. In 1948 he had his own line of stoneware
in production and later on was appointed artistic director
at Rörstrand after Gunnar Nylund, were he remained until
1973. Stålhane´s characteristics and intensity
lay in his ability to create delicate yet masculine forms
and the very spontaneous but never compromising accuracy of
his work.
