Camilla Engdahl is a Swedish designer whose ceramics, featured here are her bird and flower pots, are naturally inspired.
The creation of the Arla bird pots was organic. Camilla Engdahl says that aviary influences were not the inspiration, but every time she looked at her creation she kept seeing a bird resemblance.
Camilla Engdahl is currently sold out of her handmade adorable Arla bird pots, but hopefully she's busy making more.
