In 1929, Nathalie Krebs collaborated with Gunnar W. Nylund to open a new stoneware studio called Krebs and Nylund. When she assumed leadership there a year later, she renamed the studio Saxbo and a remarkable tradition in Danish pottery was established. Krebs' most famous colleagues are Edith Sonne-Bruun and Eva Stæhr-Nielsen. Krebs developed the oriental- influenced glazes and Stæhr-Nielsen designed the shapes, which together contributed to the classic "Saxbo Style". Saxbo pottery has been exhibited all over the world and captured Milan's Triennale gold medal in 1957. Saxbo pottery is included in the collections of "New York Museum of Modern Art", "New York Metropolitan Museum of Art", "The Hague", "National Museum in Stockholm", and "Copenhagen Industrial Arts Museum".
