Jytte Strøm’s ceramics are characterised by simple shapes with special focus on
the decorative aspect. The gallery showcases her popular, one of a kind sinks for
the bathroom. There are also Strøm’s dishes, cups, bowls and vases – perfect as
gifts, for the table, or simply for decorating the home. Jytte Strøm was educated
at Copenhagen’s ”School of Decorative Art” (now ”The Danish Design School”).
Since the 1990s, she has created and exhibited her ceramics and carried out
commissions for companies, private individuals, associations and municipalities.
Jytte Strøm’s gallery and workshop are located in beautiful natural surroundings
just 60 km north of Copenhagen in Northern Zealand, close to the Torup organic
village and 5 km from Hundested (see “find vej” (=”how to get here”) on the
menu for the map and directions). The gallery can be visited all year round.
Opening hours: Look for the ”OPEN” sign or call and arrange a visit by appoint-
ment. Special opening hours during the summer.
