Gustavsberg is a Swedish ceramics company that was founded in 1826 by Johan Edvard Jacobsson, initially producing everyday household pottery. The company grew rapidly and began producing high-quality, decorative ceramics in the early 20th century, under the artistic direction of Wilhelm Kage, who was influenced by the Art Deco movement. Kage's designs for Gustavsberg pottery were characterized by bold, geometric forms and simple, elegant decoration.

In the mid-20th century, Gustavsberg expanded its product range to include tableware and decorative objects in a variety of styles, including Mid-Century Modern designs by Stig Lindberg, who was a prominent designer for the company in the 1940s and 1950s. Lindberg's work for Gustavsberg was characterized by playful, colourful designs and innovative use of materials and forms.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Gustavsberg produced a range of products designed by some of the most prominent Swedish designers of the time, more...
