About the Designer

The Saxbo Pottery was established in 1930 by Nathalie Krebs, who had previously worked at Bing & Grøndahl. She was trained as a civil engineer and chemist. Eva Staehr-Nielsen joined her in 1932 and together they made Saxbo into the most important independent small pottery in Denmark. Krebs developed the glazes and Staehr-Nielsen created the shapes. Several generations of Danish potters worked there and helped to establish the classic Saxbo style of simple stoneware shapes and oriental style glazes. The pottery closed in 1968. Today Saxbo ceramics are in high demand by collectors of mid century design.
