Description

This scholarly examination traces how Nordic private collectors displayed Chinese objects in their homes during the period 1700-1950, offering fresh perspectives on the definition of collecting and display practices. Minna Torma analyses four key Scandinavian collections through detailed case studies: Kustaa Hiekka, Sophus Black, Osvald Siren, and Marie-Louise and Gunnar Didrichsen. The work distinguishes between objects valued as decorative pieces and those acquired as collectibles, whilst documenting the evolution of twentieth-century collecting trends. By studying collectors with diverse professional backgrounds-a jeweller, businessmen, and a scholar-the book reveals how personal circumstances and expertise shaped the formation and presentation of these important collections, contributing to broader understandings of material culture history in Northern Europe.
