Lisa Larson

Lisa Larson (1931 – 2024) was a Swedish ceramicist and designer, well-known for her charming ceramic animals and figures. She studied at the College of Crafts and Design in Gothenburg and participated in a Scandinavian art competition after her graduation in 1954. At the competition, she caught the eye of Stig Lindberg, who offered her a trial position at the Gustavsberg porcelain factory. Larson's career at Gustavsberg lasted for decades until 1980, after which she embarked on freelance projects for various Swedish companies, including Duka, Kooperativa Förbundet, and Åhléns. In 1992, she established the Gustavsberg Ceramic Studio alongside some former colleagues. The studio remains active still.
