Rolf Lindståhl is a Swedish silversmith born in Linköping 1946.
In 1962-66 he studied at Sweden's Jewelers' and Goldsmiths' Association's school Strålsnäs in Mjölby and then at the Art School where he graduated in 1971.
Since 1974, he has run his own silversmith's studio in Stockholm and works within the silversmith's traditional work area, where he has explored the possibilities of different geometric shapes in his creation of corpus silver. Lindståhl has mainly worked with larger objects such as goblets, jugs, vases and bowls. He has had several solo exhibitions abroad and in Stockholm, including at Nutida Svenskt Silver where he has also been a member for many years and is represented at, among others, the Nationalmuseum, Malmö Museum and The Royal Palace in Stockholm, HRH King Carl XVI Gustav.
