Hello all;

Maybe you can help me with a Swedish potter. I only saw one slide, which is
a teapot with combined linear drawing (in black stain) and relief. The
subject matter is a bit dream like, the relieves were fanciful animals. The
knob was an animal also. I thought of Gabriel Garcia Marquez when I saw the
pot. It was in white clay, possibly porcelain.

In my note, I wrote the potter was Gustav 'Gross' My friend thought was
Gustav 'Gras'. I'd like to see more of his pots.

Many thanks
