‘Poppel’ wooden platter, Sigvard Nilsson, AB Söwe-Konst, Sweden. 1960s. art ‘Spiral’ symbolises the post-war avant-garde

‘Spiral’ symbolises the post-war avant-garde artistic styles expressed between the 1950s - 60s

Not only is this a rare piece of history and window into late 19th century Britain

Executed in typical Swedish Art Deco fashion

The delicate proportions result in a lightweight form that is pleasing to the eye from all angles whether on display or in use

In some ways I find it to be quite reminiscent of stoneware that came from Scandinavia in the 20th century
