Arne Jacobsen for Stelton — Cylinda Line Creamer & Sugar Bowl, 1960s

Arne Jacobsen for Stelton — Cylinda Line Creamer & Sugar Bowl, 1960s

A superb example of Danish modernism, this Cylinda Line stainless steel creamer and sugar bowl set was designed by legendary architect and designer Arne Jacobsen in the late 1960s for Stelton. With their pure cylindrical silhouette, brushed steel finish, and uncompromising minimalism, these pieces exemplify Jacobsen’s iconic “no-nonsense” approach to form and function.

Crafted in high-quality stainless steel, the set displays the elegant restraint and flawless proportions that made the Cylinda Line an enduring classic. Both pieces feature the characteristic geometric clarity of Jacobsen’s work and were part of the original collection that earned the ID Prize in 1967 and later became a cornerstone of Scandinavian industrial design.

Designer – Arne Jacobsen (1902–1971)

Arne Jacobsen stands as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century design. Known internationally for his total-design approach in architecture and interiors, he created some of the most recognizable furniture forms of the era — from the Egg and Swan chairs to the flatware used in Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. The Cylinda Line was his first major foray into industrial product design, showcasing his mastery of precision, proportion, and material purity.

Manufacturer – Stelton (Founded 1960)

Stelton is Denmark’s premier producer of modern stainless-steel tableware. Their collaboration with Jacobsen became a milestone in Danish design history, establishing Stelton as a global leader in functional, minimalist design objects. The Cylinda Line remains one of their most celebrated and collected series.
