The sculptor Anna Petrus (1886–1949) was a pioneer in Swedish design and one of the most interesting sculptors of the 20th century. At the World's Fair in Paris in 1925, she designed, among other things, cast iron columns for the Swedish pavilion. Details of the pillars would then be transformed into flower pots.
