Wilhelm Kåge (1889-1960) is one of the most well-known representatives of the illustrious Swedish ceramic design of the 20th century. He was the artistic leader for Gustavsberg in the 1930s and 1940s and is often called the father of Swedish modernism. Kage is represented at the Swedish National Museum of Art and Design.

In 1949, Wilhelm relinquished his role as artistic director to his colleague, Stig Lindberg. He continued his studio work at Gustavberg until his death in 1960. He is remembered as Gustavberg’s ceramic king, who for more than 40 years, guided the factory through the shifting tide of 20th century style trends and into modern times.

Gustavsberg porcelain factory is Sweden’s oldest porcelain factory. It is located in Gustavsberg and has been in continuous operation since 1827.
Gustavsberg produces genuine art ceramics such as tableware and crafts.
