Montage of Noomi Backhausen pottery designs

Noomi Backhausen (1938-2011) worked at Söholm Keramik located in Rønne on the island of Bornholm, Denmark from 1966 until it closed down in 1990. While there, she created designs that decorated pieces by Paul Brandborg. In 1996, she founded her own pottery, also in Rønne.

Examples of her work – including wall plaques, vases, teapots, wall sconces and lamp bases – are readily available from Etsy, eBay, 1stDibs and Pamono.
