More information

Kerstin Hörlin-Holmquist (1925-97) designed furniture and textiles for NK in 1952-64. Later she worked for different companies, for example OPE-Möbler. The furniture series 'Paradise' was designed in 1958 and became a success for NK. The canapé 'Garden of Eden' was executed in a few copies why it's also very rare on the auction market.
