The set includes three ceramic pieces with a compact, rounded shape, featuring a natural earth-tone color palette. Two of them are MUSHROOM-style ceramic vases, designed by Danish ceramicist and sculptor Erik Græser. Their distinctive mushroom-like silhouette—with a wide body resting on a short base—is complemented by openings at the top, allowing for the arrangement of single flowers or small floral arrangements. The surface of both vases is covered with glaze in a variety of colors—ranging from light shades of gray and beige to browns, ochres, and darker, irregular discolorations. This effect is created by the free-flowing glaze, which emphasizes the rounded forms and gives each piece its own unique character. The combination of a sculptural silhouette with a multihued surface is characteristic of mid-20th-century Danish studio ceramics. The third piece in the set is a closed ceramic object of unknown authorship, distinct from the two MUSHROOM vases. It has a rounded, slightly flattened shape, a light, speckled surface, and irregular brown glaze spots. Inside is an embedded element that makes a sound when shaken. The object thus combines a decorative function with acoustic properties, fitting into the trend of experimental studio ceramics. It is not a design by Erik Græser and remains unidentified in terms of both the artist and the workshop. Dimensions. Height 8 cm - width 13 cm. Height 6 cm - width 8.5 cm. Height 5.5 cm - width 8 cm.
