About the Item

This ceramic vase set by Swedish studio potter Rolf Palm exemplifies the refined artistry that defines Scandinavian ceramic design in the mid-20th century. Hand-thrown and signed by the artist, the pieces display Palm’s distinctive earthy glaze palette, a nuanced combination of muted tones, speckled textures, and gentle shifts in colour that reveal the subtle unpredictability of the handmade process. Each surface reflects the slow and deliberate rhythm of studio production, where glazing becomes as expressive as form itself. The softly rounded silhouettes and tactile finishes speak to Palm’s deep connection to his materials and his mastery of traditional stoneware techniques, honed over decades in his Mölle studio on the Swedish west coast. Known for work that balances quiet strength with organic beauty, Palm created ceramics that sit comfortably between everyday functionality and sculptural presence. This set embodies his unmistakable Nordic sensibility, where simplicity, craftsmanship, and the raw character of stoneware come together with understated elegance.
