This is a horse ceramic tile produced by Lisa Larson at Studio G in Gustavsberg in the 1960s, limited to 150 pieces. The tile depicts a majestic horse with harness on its back, including the saddle and reins. Many of Lisa Larson's works from the 1960s use blue glaze, but this horse's saddle, reins and eyes are also dotted with blue glaze. The bisque parts have the black color of the kiln, and the glazed surface is a deep indigo color, making this a very tasteful ceramic tile.

It is over 40cm wide and weighs more than 3kg, giving it a strong presence due to its thickness. It is an impactful ceramic tile that can be placed in the center of a room as a pictorial ornament. Lisa Larson's signature is engraved on the bottom of the front legs, and a serial number is painted on the back. This piece was made about 10 years after Lisa Larson began working at Gustavsberg. Although Lisa Larson was in her 30s at the time, this work was created at a time when she was already well known as a first-class ceramic artist, and it is a masterpiece created in the process of her growth into a world-class artist.

Lisa Larson

Lisa Larson (1931-2024)

A world-renowned Swedish ceramicist, he was born in Härlunda, a village of about 500 people in the Älmhult district of Kronoberg county in the Småland region in southern Sweden.

As a child, she aspired to be a fashion designer, but after enrolling at the Gothenburg Academy of Art, she studied ceramics. One day, she was discovered by Stig Lindberg at a competition, and after a one-year probationary period, she officially joined Gustavsberg as a designer. Shortly thereafter, in 1955, she released the Lilla Zoo series, and in 1964, she came up with the Afrika series, famous for its lion statues.

Lisa Larson has not only worked for Gustavsberg, but has also provided designs for Höganäs, the major domestic retailer Åhléns, and the German ceramic manufacturer Rosenthal. After leaving Gustavsberg in 1979, she became a freelance artist, working on a voluntary basis with companies, rather than as an exclusive contractor, and continued to work freely in various fields. In 1979 and 1981, she held solo exhibitions at Seibu Department Store in Tokyo, and the 1981 exhibition was visited by a total of 70,000 people.

Gustavsberg's G-Studion

G-Studion

Apart from the mass production line, Gustavsberg had a department called G-Studion. Famous designers such as Willhelm Koge, Stig Lindberg and Lisa Larsson created their artwork here.

Founded in 1942, G Studio was a group of artists, designers, craftsmen and illustrators whose activities ranged from creative work to exhibition ceramics, public space art production and industrial design. . It operated until 1993 and served as an ``aesthetic laboratory''. It was also responsible for providing design ideas for Gustavsberg's mass-produced products.

G-Studio was a renovated atelier in an old building from a ceramics factory in Gustavsberg, and was a hub for more than 100 artists and craftsmen. It is no exaggeration to say that Gustavsberg's ceramic tradition of the 20th century originated from here. It was a centerpiece of the Swedish art and design world and served as a breeding ground for new creativity.

Each piece of G Studio's work is handmade, and there are videos showing the production process. The video shows a man wearing round glasses, designer Stig Lindberg. And on the right side you can see Willhelm Koge, who was the studio director.
