In a fruitful convergence of ancient craftsmanship and current technology, the Tortus pottery company has firmly established itself as a force to be reckoned with in the world of Danish design. For co-founder Eric Landon the love of ceramics began at the age of fifteen. In an effort to keep the young man out of trouble, his mother bought a ceramics oven, and Eric set up his own studio ,2 8+& #"7&1&28 3' 8+& '"1,0=|7 +31& ,2 ,0;"9/&&• Wisconsin. The first items he made were simple – pencil holders and coffee mugs for friends and family.

They allow me to do certain things with the material that few potters can do. I can manipulate the clay in different ways, which results in shapes that are very precise in relation to the scale.�

“My mother still treasures them to this day,� Eric says. He took to the craft and made rapid progress. In high school he took a pottery class; after three weeks his teacher had nothing left to teach him. Later, four years of economic studies gave him useful skills for becoming an independent businessman. Romance brought him to Copenhagen, where he attended the Danish Design School.
