Svenskt Tenn’s founder Estrid Ericson was fond of beautiful table settings. These napkins with the print Vårklockor, are suitable for both everyday use and special occasions.

In this print, leaves and plants are of the same scale as they would be in a flowerbed. Many familiar spring flowers such as tulips, crocuses, dandelions and forget-me-nots can be found in the horizontal motif.

Josef Frank/Svenskt Tenn

Svenskt Tenn developed this design using Josef Frank's print.

Josef Frank grew up in Vienna and studied architecture at Technische Hochschule (the Vienna University of Technology) in 1903 – 1908. In the 1920s he designed housing estates and large residential blocks built around common courtyards in a Vienna with severe housing shortages. In 1925, he founded the Haus & Garten interior firm together with architect colleague Oskar Wlach. Svenskt Tenn hired Josef Frank in 1934 and just a few years later he and Estrid Ericson made their international breakthrough. Although he was already 50 when he left the burgeoning Nazism in Vienna for Sweden, Frank is considered one of Sweden’s most important designers. Read More
