Outdoor pots for plants have interested Signe Persson-Melin as long as his interest in gardening. As a ceramicist, he has made many different forms in both earthenware and stoneware. Despite holes in the bottom and feet underneath, they have never withstood the Swedish winter, but cracked at the bottom.
Now he has found the optimal material – sand cast aluminium. They are named Gråsippa after the soft flower shape. The closing collar makes the smaller sizes easy to move. The big one probably stays where you put it - on the other hand, it holds a whole tree.
BRAND HIGHLIGHT
A deep reverence for the traditional art of foundry runs through the Byarums Bruk business. For 65 years, it has used time-honoured techniques to keep this ancient craft alive and well in its own forgery, while innovating through its use of well-considered materials. Since its foundation by the Bokinge brothers in 1947, Byarums Bruk has pioneered the use of cast aluminium, rather than the more traditional cast iron.Not only do aluminium’s characteristics make it perfect for use outdoors (it is less brittle than iron, weighs less when cold, and it does not rust). It is also a more sustainable metal: aluminium is in almost limitless natural supply and can be recycled infinitely.Years of collaboration and creativity have built Byarums Bruk’s unrivalled collection of outdoor furniture, available through Tollgard’s London showrooms. Today, the business continues to collaborate, working with a family of designers including Signe Persson-Melin, Mårten Cyrén and Jesper Ståhl to bring new designs to life through this extraordinary craft.
