Our aim is for each piece to be unique.
We created Sthål because we love ceramics and the handmade feeling. That's why we often choose effect glazes that can react slightly differently from time to time during the firing process - which means that our ceramics sometimes vary in colour and appearance. For us, that's part of the magic of Sthål. We hope you feel the same way.
Arabesque is made from white stoneware clay that is fired at a high temperature to make it durable and waterproof. The glazes are carefully selected to make the food look extra appetizing. The ceramics are ovenproof (up to 200°) and microwave and dishwasher safe. We develop all our shapes and prototypes in our studio in Olseröd on the rolling hills of Österlen.

Color shifts and variations in pattern depth are something we strive for. This is part of the design that reinforces the unique expression. Each individual object has its own appearance because both the clay and the glazes are living materials. No two pieces are exactly the same.
Please also note that the glazes Antique, Seaweed, Fig, Thunder, Sand, Pineapple, Lavender and Old Rose are effect glazes. Crazing, color changes and streaking are part of the appearance, and this variation is something we strive for and is therefore not a mistake or reason for complaint. Some of our products are also unglazed at the bottom due to the properties of the glaze. The goods are SGS tested, which guarantees that they are non-toxic (this does not apply to our interior collections Salon and Glänta, which are not intended for food). The work environment meets CE requirements, which means that the manufacturer or importer certifies that the product meets the EU's basic health, environmental and safety requirements.
