With Christmas around the corner, we thought that the time was right to launch our very first MidCenturyHome design wish list.
Here, we present a selection of some of our favourite brands and products that, we believe, represent the very best of the midcentury and Scandinavian design aesthetic.
You will find products from one of the best Portuguese ceramics manufacturers, as well as key pieces from Bauer Pottery, an iconic kitchenware brand with its origins in the 1950s.
We hope this new series will help you to find inspiration not only for your house, but also for those last minute Christmas gifts for friends and loved ones.
Clockwise: Liquor Set by Sargadelos, Russel Wright Salt and Pepper by Bauer Pottery Compan, Stoneware Pie Bird by Le Creuset, Wine Pitcher Fox by Pordallo Pinheiro, Cabbage Bowl by Bordallo Pinheriro and Iittala Sarjaton Varpu Mug
Liquor set by Sargadelos
Inspired by the Galician and celtic culture, Sargadelos makes iconic and easily recognizable ceramics. This 6pcs Liquor Set is no exception.
Salt and Pepper Set by Bauer Pottery
Funded in 1878 in Louisville, Kentucky, through the 1940s and 50s, Bauer Pottery was a pioneer in modern design. Lines like Russel Wright’s American Modern pushed the evolution of the Bauer product lines, even further. Their designs were – and still are – the quintessence of midcentury modern. You can find the Russel Wright American Modern Salt & Pepper here.
Stoneware Pie Bird by Le Creuset
French brand Le Creuset, is well known for the quality of their colorfully-enameled cast-iron cookware. The Stoneware Pie Bird is the accessory we all need to bake that perfect Christmas Pie.
Pitcher Fox and Cabbage Bowl by Bordallo Pinheiro
The Cabbage bowl and Pitcher Fox by Portuguese brand Bordallo Pinheiro, are probably not everyone’s taste, but we can’t stop loving them. Their incredible quality, quirky and colorful designs, remind us of the best 1950s Swedish ceramics companies as Gustavsberg.
Varpu Mug by Iittala
With its decor inspired by the Finnish forest, the Varpu mug by Iittala, will make you feel closer to the the Scandinavian in you.
