Svenskt Tenn: A Philosophy of Home

RETROSPECTIVE AT LILJEVALCHS
2024.09.27 – 2025.01.12

Svenskt Tenn concludes its centenary celebrations in 2024 with a landmark exhibition at Liljevalchs in Stockholm. The retrospective will be the most extensive one of its kind, highlighting Svenskt Tenn’s rich heritage, the visionary work of the company founder Estrid Ericson, and the iconic architect and designer Josef Frank.

Svenskt Tenn: A Philosophy of Home represents the most extensive exhibition on Svenskt Tenn to date. Visitors will be transported through the century-spanning narrative across thirteen thematic rooms at Liljevalchs, curated by renowned London-based curator and writer Jane Withers together with Svenskt Tenn's Head curator Karin Södergren.

With rarely seen objects from Svenskt Tenn's own extensive archive, together with loans from international museums and private collections, visitors will be offered a one-of-a-kind deep dive into Svenskt Tenn's history, from the design and production of pewter wares in 1920s Stockholm, to the brand's expansion into furniture, textiles, lighting, and tableware on the international design scene.
