Scandinavian Décor Classics: Traditional and Contemporary

 

Certain decorative items in Sweden are just classic! They fit seamlessly into, and characterise this well-loved, refined, Swedish home style. They celebrate Scandinavian craftsmanship and vardagslyx (everyday luxury). Key elements include a brass candleholder, a porcelain serving platter or dinnerware, a glass vase, and glass tea light candleholder.

Whilst the basis of these elements are timeless, designers have found new interpretations, as a continuation of the same look. Which do you prefer, the more traditionalist style, or its more contemporary version, below?
