Lisa Larson created a ceramic sculpture titled Last Dance at Keramik Studion (K-Studion), Gustavsberg's in-house workshop. Lisa Larson left Gustavsberg in 1979 and worked as a freelancer, but was welcomed back to the company in 1991 with the high treatment of being provided with an environment where she could concentrate on her own creative activities. The work of Lisa Larson, who has already become a world-famous artist, will be produced at a high level of technology.
The last dance porcelain statues are limited to 600 and were made in the 90s and 2001 respectively. Each one has a different color pattern, and the men in the 90's are wearing light blue tuxedos . When it was produced again in 2001 with a limit of 600 pieces, the colors were changed to a black tuxedo and white dress to make it different from the original.
This light blue pattern is an original from the 90's , and compared to the 2001 reprint, the facial expressions are more precise, and you can feel that Lisa Larson was deeply involved in the supervision. In addition, the black version does not have the tail of the tuxedo, and the overall color is flat. The 90's version has the tail part drawn properly. Their outfits are the same light blue color, so you can feel that they have a high affinity for each other. The rarity is high and the completeness is also excellent.

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.
