about the designer :: Linck, Margrit

Margrit Linck’s works are found in major international museum collections and have a cult following amongst 20th century ceramic arts specialists. Her works reflect the major art movements of the early 20th century, including sleek, organic, avandt-garde forms and exciting abstract glaze decorations. After completing her studies in Bern, she was greatly inspired by her sabbaticals in Berlin (1924-1925) and in Paris (1927 to 1930). Her original inspiration was the traditional pottery of the Heimberg, Steffisburg and Thun ateliers of Switzerland but with her own flair and special eye and hand for the contemporary. One could say that she ushered Swiss pottery into the 20th century but spectacularly so.
