About Jennie Adén's Säter and Haga towels
The linen towels Säter and Haga are inspired by classic weaving patterns and techniques, but instead of weaving straight, the patterns are hand-colored in irregular lines to create life and movement. These towels should really be used and may be used without being ironed or mangled. Just take them out of the washing machine and let them dry. They may also be hung so that both sides are visible.
The designer
Behind the design is Svensk Tenn's latest Design grantee Jennie Adén. Jennie is considered one of Sweden's biggest design promises and originally comes from Sölje. Read about her on Kurbit's website. Jennie did a Beckamns internship at Klässbols where, among other things, she designed Säter and Haga towels.
Jennie about Jennie:
By "digging where I stand", I want to highlight the local possibilities and materials available in a small area. I am driven by working with the entire design process, from refining raw materials to designing and manufacturing products, I often use raw materials from and around Sölje, where I have a strong personal connection. Sölje is on the other side of Glafsfjorden from Klässbol. In 2018, I took my bachelor's degree at Formlinjen, Beckmans School of Design. All my life I have been interested in textiles and in my designs I often work with weaving, felting and dyeing. I am inspired by historical craftsmanship in combination with today's needs, resources and techniques. We humans have to relate to a more sustainable lifestyle and consumption habits, so with its high quality and local production, Klässbol's Linneväveri is a matter of course.
