Axel and Nora Lundgren made several important bequests to Swedish Museums. They left important works of art to Moderna Museet, Museum of Mediterranean and Near Eastern Antiquities and an extensive collection of Chinese porcelain and Works of Art to the Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities in Stockholm as well as founded Axel & Nora Lundgrens Art Foundation. Axel R Lundgren (18?-1939) was a co-founder of the ‘Kinaklubben’ in the early 1900 in Sweden. He had a significant collection of Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art, he did exhibit 44 pieces at the Nationalmusum exhibition in 1928. His advisors were Orvar Karlbeck and Hans Öström. Bo Gyllenswärd writes about his fantastic collection in the catalogue from the Exhibition at the time of the significant bequest. Mr Lundgren married Eleonora (Nora) Augusta Nydqivst (b 1891-?)in 1917 who kept the collection intact until it was donated to Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities.
