Noliamässan in Piteå, August 2024

At the Nolia fair in Piteå on August 7-11, we showed the exhibition Svenskt Tenn – 100 years. The layout was the same as at the Antiques Fair in Stockholm in March; a green section about Svenskt Tenn's first ten years, a bedroom, a living room, a dining group, a buffet setting and finally a section about Estrid Ericson and her own design. Furniture and textiles are designed by Josef Frank unless otherwise stated.

Most of the items from the exhibition are now for sale. For inquiries, please contact Jenny von Platen, jenny(at)modernform.se, phone +46 702 702270.

On the sideboard with model number 2115, there is, among other things, a table lamp 2583 with a shade with the Santé pattern. Estrid Ericson liked to travel and world maps were a recurring theme in her home interiors. The armchairs 2087 are newly upholstered with green velvet fabric. Cushions with the Dixieland pattern.
