Stavangerflint (Norway)

Inger Waage designed teapot

Another Inger Waage design - this is a spoonrest

More fantastic designs from Inger Waage. These are from the Flamingo oven to tableware range and the pattern is called 'Bambus'.

That's a nice little pot Maarten - can you tell us anything about it? What's on the base?

Sure: It's a dish with a cover, I guess around 12-9 cm, ~4 cm high (I do not have it in front of me now). I think it might be a butter dish?
Here's the base:

Hi, designer Kari Nyqvist born 1918 in Oslo. Worked for Stavangerflint from 1950 to 1960. She is represented at the Victoria and Albert museum in London.

Hi Lass,

Thanks for this info. I really appreciate it

Indeed - I've got a few dishes and plates with the same 'Kari' mark to the back and I'd only been able to narrow it down to half a dozen possible designers (Kari Nyqvist was one) - so it's good to know for sure.

I got this pretty little footed nut dish recently, with a load of other Scandi studio pottery (soon to be featured here to see if we can find out who they are..) but this was easier. Inger Waage design.

Does this sort of simple abstract design normally have a design name, or is it pretty generic?

Lynne - Inger Waage designs fetch really decent money, that's a nice little dish - not sure about the design name though I know a man who might know (he's writing a book about the life and work of Inger Waage) - I'll ask him to join here.

More lovely Stavangerflint...

...and another - this one designed by Kari Nyqvist.

and another Kari Nyqvist...

Yes, you guessed it - another Kari Nyqvist design - this cheeky little lady is my favourite.
