This is an elegant handmade relief ceramic mural for the stove in the Northern art Nouveau style.
A 20th century stove in Vyborg made by the Finnish Abo pottery plant (Åbo kakelfabriks aktiebolag (AKF) – Turun kaakelitehdas (TKT)) served as an inspiration for this mural – the stove has a wonderful ceramic mural with stylized pine cones and needles in it’s pediment.
In terms of composition, our mural reflects the original. However the overall mood of the mural has been changed – the mural has been made feminine – due to the stylization carried out by our sculptor. The lines of the branches echo the motifs in our “National Romanticism” series’ tiles, which we have also used in the Northern stove. The stylized needles gather into wavy bouquets, which along with round cones are scattered on the nodular pine branch.
The relief ceramic mural is created in slab technique; the painting is made in majolica technique.
