A limited edition of 400 flower vases produced by Lisa Larson in 1993 at Gustavsberg's in-house workshop, Keramik Studion (K-Studion). Lisa Larson left Gustavsberg in 1979 and worked as a freelancer, but was welcomed back to the company with a high treatment of providing an environment where she could concentrate on her own creative activities. It is a limited item produced by Lisa Larson, who has already become a world-famous artist, at a high level of technology.
Only 400 pieces of this work were produced in 1993 under the series name of Marine. A masterpiece with apple-like red stripes and lush green stripes vividly coloring the milky white body. The stripes are hand-painted and evenly colored, demonstrating the high level of technical skill.
Lisa Larson's works in the 90's were different from the mid-century period of the 20th century. Many of the works before that have relatively dark tones, but this work is a particularly wonderful work with vivid colors that have never been seen before.

Lisa Larson (1931-2024)
A world-renowned ceramic artist representing Sweden. Born in the village of Härlunda, in the Älmhult district of Kronoberg county in the Småland region of southern Sweden.
When she was young, she aspired to be a clothing designer, but after enrolling at Gothenburg University of the Arts, she studied ceramics. One day, he was discovered by Stig Lindberg at a competition, and after a one-year trial period, he officially joined Gustavsberg as a designer. Shortly after, in 1955, he announced the Lilla zoo series, and in 1964 he devised the Afrika series, famous for its lion statues.
In addition to Gustavsberg, Lisa Larsson has also provided designs for Höganäs, domestic retail giant Åhléns, and German pottery manufacturer Rosenthal. After leaving Gustavsberg in 1979, he was active in various fields while continuing his creative activities freely, taking the position of a freelance artist under a voluntary contract with a company rather than an exclusive contract. In 1979 and 1981, he held solo exhibitions at the Seibu Department Store in Tokyo, and his solo exhibition in 1981 is said to have attracted 70,000 visitors.
