Bio:
Axel Salto (1889–1961) is one of Denmark’s most significant ceramic artists, and his works for Royal Copenhagen are highly sought-after collectors’ pieces worldwide. His artistic vocabulary drew inspiration from natural growth forms, expressed through the iconic categories “budding,” “sprouting,” and “fluted.” Salto’s ceramics from the 1940s represent a peak in Danish modernist stoneware, combining sculptural vitality with masterful glazing techniques.
