About
Why this artist matters now
Nanny Still was a Finnish designer and glassmaker whose work defined postwar Scandinavian modernism. Working primarily in glass and ceramics, she developed a refined formal language of clean lines and restrained color that became influential across Northern Europe. Her designs for tableware and decorative objects balanced functional clarity with subtle material expression, establishing her as a key figure in mid-century Finnish design culture.
