Inspired by Nature
Throughout her life, Svenskt Tenn’s founder Estrid Ericson created countless interiors, table settings and exhibitions that helped shape the history of Swedish design. For Ericson, work and creativity were always at the heart of everything she did – something reflected in her own studies.
When Svenskt Tenn opened its shop at Strandvägen 5 in 1927, Estrid Ericson’s workspace was located on the ground floor. Papers and sketches shared the large desk with a variety of decorative objects. Later, Ericson moved her study upstairs to the second floor of the shop. That study, which can best be described as an artist’s studio, has been preserved as a reminder of Estrid Ericson’s legacy. Behind glass, everything remains exactly as Ericson left it at the time of her passing in 1981, and the room continues to inspire visitors today.
