Kaj Faale Larsen born in 1912, opened her shop, Kaj Atelier in Oslo Norway in 1960's. Although the pieces made by Kaj are of extremely high handmade quality, and her designs are well-balanced and rooted in tradition Scandinavian design, her workshop is little known and her pieces rarely scene. Many of Larsen's designs are inspired by her work at Norway Designs Plus Workshop and with Tone Vigeland. They are all hand hammered and because of the limited scale of production they hold a higher value and demand than other ND+ artists.
