Vintage Midcentury Modern Wall Platter by Tilgmans Keramik, Sweden
By Tilgmans Keramik
Located in Copenhagen, DK
Vintage handmade fully glazed Swedish midcentury modern wall platter / centrepiece with organic, floral decor depicting a gazelle with a direct gaze surrounded by vegetation in brown, ochre, green, white and bright pink colors on a striped dark blue background created with the experimental sgraffito technique that Tilgmans became famous for. Designed and handpainted in the late 1950s by Eivor Lang and manufactured by German/Finnish Paul Harald Tilgman in his workshop in the small town of Kortedala close to Gothenburg, Sweden. Milky white glaze on the base and sides with curved, muted green decor framing the image along the edge. Three holes for hanging - two in use with metal wire. Signed under base. A handpainted piece in beautiful condition. Paul Harald “Harry” Tilgmann was born in Dresden, Germany in 1904 and emigrated to Sweden during WWII where he started Tilgmans Keramik (= Ceramics) in 1948 in the small town of Utbynäs close to Gothenburg. Tilgman had 16 employees working for him and when he hired the Polish refugee Marian Zawadzki (1912-1978) as artistic director in 1953, Tilgman Keramik started experimenting with the distinct sgraffito technique. The sgraffito technique consists of carving fine lines into the background of a design through a light colored glaze down to a dark grey clay slip. This created a unique textured ground which has become a style associated with Tilgmans Keramik in particular. The decorative elements also appear to be outlined with a carved line and then hand painted with overglazes where birds, fish, flowers, butterflies and other animals were a common theme. This type of work was the most popular in midcentury Sweden alongside Tilgmans small animal figurines...

Spanish Triana “Lebrillo” Ceramic Plate with Painted Deer - 20 in
Located in SANT ADRIÀ DE BESÒS, ES
Seville potteries of Triana. Large hand-thrown Lebrillo with a flat base, a broad open conical form and a thick rounded rim, produced in the celebrated pottery workshops of Triana, Seville. Originally intended as a practical household vessel, the lebrillo has become one of the most recognizable forms of traditional Andalusian ceramics and today is highly appreciated as a decorative wall piece. This example belongs to the polychrome decorative tradition of Triana, characterized by a rich tin-glazed surface covering nearly the entire interior while leaving the exterior support ring unglazed. The composition is centered around a beautifully hand-painted deer standing within a stylized landscape surrounded by floral motifs. Concentric blue and green bands frame the central scene, while the broad rim is decorated with geometric ornament in the classic Triana palette. The lively brushwork and vibrant colors beautifully illustrate the craftsmanship of Seville’s historic ceramic workshops. The reverse retains the traditional unglazed terracotta body, while the interior displays a fine craquelure that has naturally developed with age, enhancing the authentic character of the piece. A striking decorative example of traditional Triana pottery...
