Bio:
In the first half of the 20th century, Kähler in Næstved was a key figure in Danish art pottery. During the 1930s, the workshop experimented extensively with colour, slip decoration and organic patterns, often influenced by contemporary modernist movements. Decorative bowls such as this combine skilled craftsmanship with a strong period aesthetic and are highly sought after by collectors today.
