How about that Google – featuring the work of Swedish Designer Josef Frank. Almost 50 years old when he fled Nazism in Austria for Sweden, where he became one of that nation’s most important designers. As a young man he was part of the modernism movement in Vienna. However, his brand of modernism was not in line with the likes of Le Corbusier. He favored a freer artistic aesthetic. Frank began working at Svenskt Tenn in 1934 and went on to produce over 2,000 furniture sketches and 160 textile designs.

Less is more in the case of Stem Vase and Stem Bowl by Ferm Living. Just a section of a branch hollowed out and fitted with a removable porcelain insert. $60 for the vase, $52 for the bowl @ Ferm Living.
