Designer

Hans Hedberg was a Swedish artist and ceramicist who studied in Faenza, Italy, from 1947 to 1948. From 1949, he operated his own studio with a gas kiln in Biot on the French Riviera. He worked with organic unbound shapes, using various naturalistic glazes. Initially, he focused mainly on functional ceramics but later became known for his exquisite sculptures in many different sizes, crafted in a high-fired earthenware known as faience. Primarily various fruits and eggs, ranging from small eggs to garden sculptures up to one metre tall.
