Svenskt Tenn’s table runner becomes a beautiful addition to your table setting. The Celotocaulis print decorates this runner, and makes it perfect for every occasion.
The Celotocaulis print was originally designed by Josef Frank in 1930. Celoto comes from an Asian flower species characterised by a plume-like flower decoration and Caulis is the Latin word for flower stalk.
The placement of the pattern may vary from the one in the picture.

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
