RÖRSTRAND
Ostindia, voted “Service of the Century” in Sweden, owes its existence to hidden treasure. After a ship returning from China sank off Gothenburg in 1746 a fragment of china from the cargo somehow ended up in a cupboard at the Rörstrand factory. Many years later in 1932 factory manager Knut Almström’s wife spotted it and uttered the famous words, “Knut, I think it might be worth making something out of this…”. And so a shard of Chinese porcelain became the model for an iconic Rörstrand design.

SKANDINAVISK

Of vast silent landscapes and raw seasons, of cosy shared moments and quiet sophistication.

Skandinavisk was created by two English gentlemen, Shaun and Gerry, who fell in love with two blonde Scandinavian girls 15 years ago and never left Scandinavia. After living in Copenhagen and Stockholm they gradually also fell in love with the Scandinavian way of life and they believe that the absolute essence of Scandinavian living is in the colour, scent, light and warmth of a flickering candle flame and a glow that not only burrows deep through the wax, but one which nourishes the soul too. You can see and smell the Skandinavisk fragrance sticks and candles at Aquavit.
