Karl Erik Iwar Mid century Ceramics

Karl Erik Iwar (1920-2006) studied at Upsala Ekeby and then in the early 1950’s he opened his own workshop. Here’s a selection of his animal based figures which caught my eye. Sadly I couldn’t discover any more about him or his work. His ceramics have such humour.

His giraffe is a firm favourite for me. I love the proportions.

Funky poodles and friendly lions in the mix too, he also made people, but I like his animals the best : )

Does anyone have any further info on Karl ?
