Bio:
Ingrid Atterberg (1920–2008) was a Swedish ceramicist, born in Härnösand. She trained at Slöjdföreningens skola in Gothenburg and was a designer at Upsala-Ekeby from 1944 to 1963. She is regarded as one of the leading figures of Swedish modernism and is particularly known for her vases and bowls, many of which found their way into ordinary Swedish homes.
