An excellent and rare set of 11 service items from the famous Danish ceramic artist Axel Salto. This was made for Royal Copenhagen, designed back in 1956. It contains: 3 x plates 2 x sauce bowls 1 x tea pot 1 x coffee pot 1 x milk pot 1 x jar 1 x salt Shaker "Axel Salto was born in Copenhagen in 1889 and is known today as one of the finest masters of 20th century ceramic art. After studying at the Royal Danish Academy of fine Arts and commencing an initial career in painting, the artist soon became intrigued by modernism and a progressive aesthetic. He visited Paris, mingled with Picasso and Matisse, and went on to publish the journal Klingen (The Blade), which became a forum for the modernist movement in Denmark between 1917 and 1920.". This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
issues arising from misattribution
