Hand-turned flowerpots and saucers of the traditional variety. Flowerpot production became an industry and mass production in Sweden around the turn of the century 1900. Before then, all pots were made by hand, as were the saucers. The profession was called pottery. Typical of handmade pots is that you can see the potter’s hands in the ware. The imprints from the hand-turning process create low ridges on the surface and show through on the outside. A hand-turned pot is therefore not as smooth as a machine pot, it is more personal and has more life and variety. A detail that also reveals the real craftsmanship is the soft, rounded rim at the top. It can certainly be made by machine, but it will never be as soft and individual as on a hand-turned pot.

Hand-turned terracotta clay pot.

Tips! As the pots are made of clay, they are not completely watertight. Place the pot on paws or similar to avoid moisture under the saucer. We do not recommend planting directly in the pot.

Towel white

The traditional kitchen and toilet towel in “poor man’s suit” in classic white or blue. The sturdy napkin for everyday and party.

This towel fabric is a so-called sieve weave (the pattern looks like a sieve – but only appears after washing!), woven to order for a guesthouse in Järvsö in the 60s.

The weaving method is also called poor man’s cloth, a weaving method that produced a fabric that looks much more exclusive than it really is.

The weaving method is very old and produces a highly absorbent and durable fabric, which has always been used for towels and tablecloths. The fabric is most beautiful if you mangle it, then the shiny linen threads in the weft are emphasized, against the duller warp of cotton. The quality only becomes more beautiful the more you wear the fabric.

One of the contradictions of the fabric is that as towels it gives a slightly old-fashioned robust character, while as a well-mangled tablecloth it gives an exclusive feeling of “Oh my, what’s this?”.

MOUNTING The wall brackets have sturdy iron screws (3.5 mm) that are carefully screwed into the wall. The hooks and brackets are then screwed onto the bar. Last of all, tighten the screws that prevent the bar from rolling.

TIP The bar can be shortened by sawing it off. It can also be connected to another pole if you want a longer version. In this case, you should use a so-called coupling sleeve and place a wall bracket over the joint.

Agave in copper sheet 15 leaves

The agave plant (Latin agave americana) is a classic outdoor plant for more lavish plantings in castles and mansions, for example.

True agave is a Mediterranean plant that in our climate requires greenhouses in winter. For this reason, it has also only been found on wealthier farms with orangeries or other means of frost-free winter storage.

Most often the agaves were planted in cast iron urns, mostly in pairs at the main entrance, or on the gate posts.

Alongside the genuine agaves, there have also been imitations in painted black plate.

Tin roofs do not grow too big. They can also withstand freezing temperatures. If they are skillfully painted, they can look so much like their predecessors that no one can tell the difference. There’s just one problem – over time, the metal rusts and the paint wears off.

Our developed agaves are therefore made of specially colored copper sheet. By using green-colored copper plate already during production, we have come extremely close to the appearance of the original plant.

The scarring starts when the plants are placed outdoors, and the resulting color changes make the “fake” agave look even more like the real thing over the years.

The tin roofs, which are a piece of qualified Swedish copper warehousing, are delivered ready assembled, just to stick into a pot with sand or soil, or directly into the bed.
