Knabstrup Keramik
Knabstrup Keramik, one of Denmark’s most cherished ceramic brands, boasts a rich history dating back to 1897. Over the years, Knabstrup Keramik has collaborated with numerous ceramic artists and designers, drawing inspiration from across the globe. From Hungarian artists in the post-war era to German ceramists in the 1960s, these creative minds shaped and decorated pieces that became treasured collectibles. In 2017, Knabstrup Keramik was relaunched with a vision to honour its storied past while embracing the future. The brand is dedicated to reviving the artistry and craftsmanship that defined its legacy, delving into its rich archives to bring timeless designs back to life.
A meeting of heritage, craft, and artistic courage. At this year’s 3daysofdesign, Knabstrup Keramik invites you to experience the soul of clay—both in its original form and reimagined by acclaimed ceramicist Erik Landon, also known as TORTUS. With his intuitive approach, TORTUS has created vases that balance the functional and the sculptural. In this collaboration, Knabstrup’s 100—year ceramic tradition merges with a contemporary artistic vision. Craftsmanship takes the lead, reminding us that it is the human hand—not the machine—that gives form its soul. Clay becomes a language, shaped by touch. A bold expression, now reaching a wider audience through thoughtful production—without losing its authenticity.
