Susanna Theander and Helena Akesson-Liedberg are the clever creatives behind this wonderful Swedish brand. With a background in graphic design and a love of food, the pair gravitated towards food related projects — illustrating and styling stunning cookery books.

This love of great food... most importantly shared across a table of good friends, brought them together and sparked the inspiration to create Sthål.

More than a decade ago they left their careers in graphic design to concentrate on their first Sthål designs in white stoneware which they called Arabesque.
