About Maija Grotell

Maija Grotell (1899–1973) studied at the School of Industrial Art in Helsinki and immigrated to the United States in 1927. She headed the Ceramics Department at Cranbrook Academy of Art from 1938 to 1966. Her thrown stoneware and porcelain developed from geometric decoration to textured surfaces, layered coloured slips and experimental glazes.
