Designer

Nils Fougstedt was a Swedish sculptor and designer. Brother of Arvid Fougstedt. Together with Estrid Ericson, he established a workshop for the production of pewter objects in Stockholm in 1924, which became the foundation of the company Firma Svenskt Tenn. For the company, he designed many beautiful works. From the 1920s classicism, he transitioned around 1930 to a moderate functionalism with straight, polished surfaces.
