About Tjomsland--

Arne Tjomsland who was Norways leading souvenir designer from the 1950's to the late 1960s. Tjomsland's artistic style is characterised by soft structural lines and minimal detailing on his creations. He received a Gold medal in the 1957 Deutsche Handwerksmesse, München and a Silver medal in the 1960 Triennale di Milano. Tjomsland figures have been displayed in the US, Canada and Japan.

Arne Tjomsland pieces were made from wood and whale tooth in the 1950’s and 60’s. His works are characterised by remarkably high stylization and a soft, restrained line. Tjomsland started making souvenir figurines in wood in 1954. His first figure was a polar bear in teak. Demand became so great that the producer, Hiorth & stlyngen, eventually serialised production. Tjomsland figures were on display at the exhibition Design in Scandinavia in the U.S. and Canada between the years 1954-1957. From 1957 he was artistic director for Goodwill Products which produced Tjomsland’s figures in both wood and whale tooth. Tjomsland mostly designed motives from the Scandinavian fauna, as well as Eskimos and Vikings.

These gorgeous owls are modernist studio pottery pieces by Joan Priolo (1924-1998).
Priolo lived and worked in Marin County and is also noted for her published books on the art of making pottery.

They are in good condition, no chips or cracks. There are some surface scuffs and scratches present to be expected with any unglazed ceramic piece.

Small felt pieces on the base keep these two from damaging furniture, or being scratched or chipped by anything rough.

Larger owl measures 8" x 7", while the smaller guy measures 6" x 5"

These two would be an excellent addition to any ceramics collection, they are very rare and hard to find!

Insurance is included in shipping cost.

I know this is a pricey pair and I would be happy to entertain fair offers from people who wish to give the pair a lovely new home.

A beautiful Bissilon-wood carving used as an appetizer server by woodworker and sculptor Emil Milan.

Made of Bissilon, the server is in good vintage condition with a few bumps (please see picture of tail specifically).

E Milan trained in sculpture and worked in the Modernist style - mostly creating functional items like bowls, spoons and trays. He is also known for his purely decorative bird sculptures; this lovely item combines elements of decoration and function. It looks like it can be used for toothpicks, but I think it is beautiful as an elegant table piece - the lines are incredible.

Emilan's work appears in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum’s Renwick gallery and is also found in the Museum of Arts and Design in NYC.

15-1/4" long, 3" wide.
