Hand-Painted Stoneware Vase by Carl-Harry Stålhane for Rörstrand - Sweden, 1976

Hand-thrown and hand-painted stoneware vase from Rörstrand’s art department (Drejargruppen), created by Swedish master ceramist Carl-Harry Stålhane in 1976. The tall flared form features abstract, painterly decoration in warm browns and cool blues: a confident balance of modernist geometry and organic texture.

Pieces from Stålhane’s late Rörstrand period are among his most collectible, produced in small batches and each unique in finish. This one carries that unmistakable studio feel: bold, expressive, and unmistakably handmade. A striking piece for collectors and design lovers alike, signed and dated on the base. In very good vintage condition with one small chip on the underside edge, barely visible when displayed.
