Happy Holidays from Svenskt Tenn
A century has passed. One hundred years of craftsmanship and traditions. Christmases filled with ambience and anticipation. Now, the 2024 anniversary Christmas is unveiled.
This year’s holiday season at Svenskt Tenn is a tribute to crafting by hand – to all of the designers, craftsmen, carpenters, glassblowers, ceramicists and basket makers who over the years have helped form the products in our range.
Paper flowers have been folded, brass cut and wrapped. Glass baubles have been blown and candlesholders painted. Wooden decorations have been carved and crafted to create a Christmas range worthy of centennial celebration.
This year's Christmas collection features Karin Ferner's Jubel brass ornaments, Frej Lonnfors' hand-carved shrink pots, Maja Sten's Christmas tree baubles, and Sofia Vusir Jansson's hand-folded paper flowers and wreaths. The collection also includes several new pieces reintroduced from Svenskt Tenn’s historical archive, such as candle holders and textiles designed by Josef Frank, along with porcelain angels first introduced by Estrid Ericson in the 1950s to 1970s.
Estrid Ericson“...That is the charm of our Swedish Christmas, that it is so rich in traditions – spiritual and material.”
