This decorative plate is named Solros, which means "sunflower" in Swedish. The overall structure is thick and heavy, and the sunflower shape is covered with transparent glaze. It is a device that makes the three-dimensional effect of the flower stand out even more when the light is reflected. The blue and streak-carved grooves of the glaze are very powerful, and although small, they have a strong presence. The bottom is engraved with GN, the initials of Gunnar Nylund.

■ Gunnar Nylund (1904-1997)


Swedish potter. Born in Paris, received primary education in Denmark, studied architecture in Finland, and then trained in ceramics in Denmark. Initially worked as a designer at Bing O Grendal in Denmark, but from 1931 to 1955 he worked for Rorstrand in Sweden. Many of Nylund's famous works were created during his time in Sweden, and are particularly characterized by his style in which the natural glaze colors the vessels in mottled patterns. The style has an affinity with Japanese tableware, but in Northern Europe at the time, tableware was generally glazed and baked. The method was novel.
