Swedish Silversmith Anders Ljungberg brings a surrealist quality to his impeccably hand-crafted pieces. There is a functioning (flat laying) silver-plated vase but it is obscured by the ‘curtain’ of tin-plated copper. One can choose to place the curtain to the side of the vessel.
Ljungberg writes:
Unfortunately the title “Förlåten” is hard to translate into English ( I have asked many English speaking friends) But in Swedish it means the curtain that was separating the most holy from were people walked around in the Temple in Jerusalem 2000 years ago. It has also been used in Christianity but also in profane use. In Swedish it is the same word as Forgiven which makes it tricky to translate.
The Förlåten piece consists of two parts of which one is Functional jug. The other one a curious kind of lid.
