Hans and Birgitte BORJESON (Denmark)

Dates: b.1932, 1939

Hans Borjeson trained at the School of Applied Art in Gothenborg, and Birgitte Borjeson trained at the School of Applied Art in Copenhagen. In the early 1960s they were both working with Harry and May Davis at Crowan Pottery, Cornwall and in 1963 set up the Fulby pottery in Zealand, Denmark. They work closely together in designing and making each particular piece. Most of their work is saltglazed and they make domestic wares as well as decorative architectural pieces, including roof supporting columns for an old people's home in Vlissingen, Holland.
