Estrid Ericson's Elefant print decorates this beautiful and useful toiletry bag with a brass zipper.
Estrid Ericson was a traveller and she always took a variety of patterns, forms and souvenirs home with her from her journeys. She designed this print with small elephants, based on a model from Belgian Congo. Elefant was printed for the first time in the end of the 1930s.
Designer
Estrid Ericson/Svenskt Tenn
Svenskt Tenn developed this design using Estrid Ericson's print.
Estrid Ericson began her career as a drawing teacher and pewter artist. But what really set her apart during her 56 years as managing director for Svenskt Tenn were her abilities as a producer and scenographer. Ericson never had an aesthetic programme mapped out, but she had an imaginative person’s perceptiveness for the many faces of beauty.
