Svenskt Tenn: Interiors
A special survey published to celebrate 100 years of the influential and innovative Swedish design company Svenkst Tenn
In 1924, Estrid Ericson founds Svenkst Tenn to produce modern pewter objects at reasonable prices. Quickly, the company gained international recognition as an established brand of quality, moving into textile, furniture, and interior design. This book tells the story of this pioneering woman, delves into the history of the company she grew, examines her relationship with acclaimed Austrian designer Josef Frank, and showcases the collaborations with contemporary designers, such as India Mahdavi, that keep Svenskt Tenn at the forefront of modern interior design.
