SKULTUNA 1607 - THE ANCIENT TRADITION OF MODERNITY

For over 400 years the lustre of Skultuna brass has illuminated the world. With classic designs from the time of our found- er King Karl IX of Sweden, as well as with ground breaking antiquities of tomorrow by leading international designers like GamFratesi, Lara Bohinc, Luca Nichetto, Monica Förster, Richard Hutten and Claesson Koivisto Rune to name a few.

And herein lies the formula to why today Skultuna can be found at leading department stores all around the world, has won a number of international design awards and regularly exhibits at the leading international design fairs - we have always been, and will always be, one part traditional craftsmanship and one part modernity. The result can be seen in the following pages and at skultuna.com THE DESIGNER

In the latest few years I developed a series of everyday objects for Skultuna, which are openly informed by the modern Italian design legacy; by merging this cultural heritage with that of the prestigious Swedish design company, I tried to high- light diversity, dialogue and exchange as key elements for the definition of a truly contemporary material culture. I’m writing this text from Milan. Other designers are probably doing the same from other cities around Europe. Skilled craftsmen are then working with our objects at the historic factory in Skultuna, while probably someone from the other side of the world is purchasing these objects on the web. We have elements to think that this amazing collaborative and multi-disciplinary network will continue to evolve, spreading Skultuna history and tradition to an even broader audience, hopefully passing its knowledge to future generations.

THE POLISHER

Every successful company has its secrets. Skultuna’s best kept secret is the master brass polishers like Mirsad Kaljun. For 25 years he has been the wizard of trans- forming the raw brown brass to a golden mirror like surface. He works his magic in the polishing workshop in Skultuna, just like the ancient masters have done for hundreds of years before him.

– You can definitely feel the history in these buildings. And I for one have learnt a lot about the craft tradition from my predecessors. The secrets of brass and how to treat it best, are inherited from polisher to polisher and then you try your best to preserve and refine the tricks of the trade, says Mirsad. THE DIRECTOR What these tricks are, Mirsad keeps to himself. They are stored in his mind until For more than a decade I’ve had the privilege of heading this very unique company. it’s time to pass the knowledge on to the next in line. But he indicates that loads Unique in the sense that it’s one of the oldest corporations in the world. Unique in of different waxes, polishing wheels and brushes play an important part. And time. the sense that I every day can witness a tradition of craftsmanship producing time- less pieces for selective people all over the globe. And last but not least, unique in – Bringing about that deep golden shine is nothing you do in a haste. Patience is key. the sense that we have stuck to our core, the captivating, gold shimmering brass, for I guess I am quite patient as a person. Patient and meticulous. more than four centuries. And that we intend to continue doing. For at least another 400 years. Hopefully Mirsad’s devout relationship with brass will continue for many years to come. So that admirers of beauty all over the world, can continue to adorn their Viktor Blomqvist homes and public spaces with shiny golden brass pieces from Skultuna. Just like Managing Director, Skultuna 1607 they have done since 1607. THE MATERIAL

For over four centuries brass has been the core of Skultuna. Brass is an alloy made of copper and zinc. The most important production techniques used to produce Skultuna products are sand casting, pres- sure die casting, turning and metal spinning. The surface is then worked upon until a golden, mirror like finish is reached with techniques like blasting, sanding, grinding and brushing. On the Fashion Accessories a thin layer of gold or silver plating is often put on top to keep them from tarnishing.

The Skultuna Concept Store opened in 2011 in the centre of Stockholm. The store is designed by the renown Swedish architect Thomas Sandell, the goal of the shop design is to link the history and THE FACTORY the iconic material of Skultuna, to the present in a classy and modern way.
