Etsy - Chinamania Gustavsberg Viggen Margareta Hennix
Description
Hennix is rather a favourite of mine, she's experimental, which I appreciate, & you can clearly see the evolution of her designs in her work. She's one of the first designers who helped me to appreciate the finesse of the colour brown, with this cup.Viggen means Thunderbolt in english hence the zig zag. But the decor on this cup produces an optical illusion due to the two very slightly different alternating shades of brown which make up each band. That discrepancy means that the mind believes the cup is angular. It also produces a really chocolate-y depth & movement to a design that's ultimately extremely simple. Quite a feat if you ask me.I have several in stock & they are in great condition.
