About the Zaalberg company
The Zaalberg company was founded in 1898 in Leiderdorp and grew into one of the better-known Dutch producers of household and decorative earthenware.
In the postwar reconstruction period after World War II, Zaalberg played an important role in the production of affordable, solid and aesthetically responsible earthenware for a broad public. The designs from the 1950s and 60s are characterized by functional forms, soft natural tones and subtle glazes – entirely in line with the then-modernist living culture in the Netherlands.
Today, Zaalberg pottery is loved by collectors for its timeless form and solid quality.
A special and stylish duo that fits well in both modern and vintage interiors. A wonderful opportunity to add two authentic Dutch design objects to your collection.
This lot will be well packaged and shipped worldwide with PostNL via the Catawiki shipping service.
