Nils Kähler for Herman A. Kähler Keramik bowl / catchall, Denmark circa 1968
Nils Kähler is one of the sons of Herman H.C. Kähler best known for taking the lead in exporting for the ceramic firm Herman A. Kahler Keramik, started by his great grandfather in 1839. With new designs and new distribution models, Nils expanded Kähler's influence and popularity worldwide.
In 1940, Nils Kähler and his brother Herman Jørgen Kähler took over the family workshop. This would be the last generation of the Kähler family to run the company. Both brothers initially worked as designers, but Nils soon took over the artistic direction, while brother Herman was primarily responsible for the administrative and practical functions. Nils was also known as ‘the young Kähler’ producing the most sought after pieces for the pottery house. Works from the era, not to be confused with the newer mass produced pieces, are typically denoted with the signature ‘HAK’ as is present here
