This piece is offered in the manner of Berndt Friberg. What follows is about the maker whose work it follows, not a statement that it left their hand.

Berndt Friberg was born in 1899 in Höganäs, southern Sweden, into a family of ceramicists, and began working at the local Höganäs ceramic factory at age 13, remaining there for 18 years. In 1934 he joined the Gustavsberg porcelain factory under artistic director Wilhelm Kåge, and from 1937 also worked alongside Stig Lindberg.

He debuted as an independent ceramicist in 1941 and held his first solo exhibition at NK in Stockholm in 1954. His stoneware forms, thrown and glazed by his own hand, drew on Chinese Song dynasty stoneware.

They are not a certification of authorship, and not a guarantee of investment value. Where authorship is documented, we say so plainly and name the evidence.
