About the Item

The “Springare” by Stig Lindberg is a refined ceramic sculpture from Sweden’s mid‑20th‑century design era. Crafted in the 1950s for the Gustavsberg Porcelain Factory, this piece interprets the theme of a horse in a sculptural form that balances simplicity and expression. With its softly rounded body, spindly legs and minimal head, the figure embodies Lindberg’s characteristic blend of humour, elegance and craft. This version features a light glaze with subtle painted and incised detailing, offering both visual calm and textural interest. Lindberg’s work at Gustavsberg and his broader career as a designer and educator mark him as one of the most versatile and influential voices in Swedish design history. Presented in excellent vintage condition, the piece retains its original form, glaze and detailing. Its compact scale makes it an elegant choice for display on console tables, bookshelves or within curated interior settings. Whether seen as a sculptural accent or part of a design‑collector selection, the "Springare" commands quiet attention and invites closer inspection.
