Designer Desire: Inger Waage

Mosaic of Inger Waage designs | H is for Home

Inger Waage was a long-serving designer working on ceramics at the Norwegian company, Stavangerflint. She began with them in 1953, continued when the firm merged with Figgjo Flint in 1968 and on until they closed the Stavanger branch in 1979.

One of our favourite of the many, many designs of hers is the dark haired lady with almond shaped eyes, huge earrings and flowers in her hair. She uses this motif again and again on bowls, vases, plates and lidded containers.

Some of her best loved and desirable tableware designs include Lotus, Bambus, Pernile and Kongo.
