Maria Philippi (1927-2004) was a German pottery artist known for her studio work as well as for her designs for the Danish pottery Søholm. There where she worked as a designer for a brief period in the early 1960s.
Her models were so popular that they went on being produced well into the 1970s. Her stoneware designs feature deep blue shiny glazes on handmade graphic decorations.
Søholm Keramik was founded in 1835 on the Danish island Bornholm, which is famous for its pottery and fine ceramics. There have been over 200 manufacturers of Ceramics and Terracotta on site. The common factor for these manufacturers was that they all used the yellow clay found on the island.
