| Here at Skansen Krukmakeri we work with two types of clay, stoneware as well as earthenware. We are inspired by traditional Swedish potters. Our goal is to create pieces which follow the old adage; form follows function. Skansen Krukmakeri pieces are beautiful, simple and functional. We use stoneware clay to create handsome mugs, pitchers, bowls, pots, plates and a variety of other pieces. Stoneware is fired at 1260o C. These items can be washed in the dishwasher and are also safe for use in the oven and microwave. All of the decorations on the stoneware pieces has been fired into the glaze. Just use a little moist salt to remove stains. We offer several series of pottery. Each has its own individual beauty and appeal. The ”Skansen” series features a bone white glaze with blue cobalt decoration. Our popular name mugs are part of the Skansen series. The ”Metallic” series includes vases with a deep metallic glaze. The pattern of the ”Linné flowerpot” takes its inspiration from 18th century porcelain and has a white opaque glaze with blue decoration. The ”Aqua” series includes mugs, pitchers and bowls. We are also pleased to offer pieces made of red earthenware. These pieces are made of clay which is fired at 1050o C. This series is steeped in Swedish history and tradition. The bowls, plates, flowerpots and candleholders are decorated with white slip and glazed with a transparent glaze. Our special ordered tiles are our specialty. We are happy to offer many pieces to suit your tastes. Enjoy our products! Majvor and Peter Asshoff |
