A stoneware wall vase of flattened rounded form, decorated to the front with an abstract floral design in shades of cream, brown and blue/green, the sides and base with a brown speckle glaze and the back unglazed and pierced for hanging. On the side is the first name of the designer ‘Noomi’ and at the back are impressed script marks ‘Søholm’ ‘Denmark’ ‘Stentøj’ with the numbers ‘3575’ for the model.The company Søholm Stentøj was founded by Herman Sonne Wolffsen and Edvard Christian Sonne in 1835 at Rønne, the principal town of Bornholm, a Danish island off the south coast of Sweden. One of the most respected of the Danish potteries it continued producing a wide range of ceramics until the firm closed in 1996. Noomi Backhausen was a designer for Søholm from 1966 to 1990 and set up her own pottery in Rønne in 1996 after the closure of her old employers. This wall vase is a typical example of her abstract organic designs and would be a worthy addition to a collection of twentieth century Danish design.
