The 10 Best Museums in Faaborg, Funen and Islands

Operating from their charming 19th century studio located in southern Denmark, unconventional Danish/Australian Jewellery Designers Stina Lind and Kevin James Egan choose to shun the mundane and the commonplace. A striking sense of purity and truthfulness pervades the Lind & James aesthetic. A sensitivity to form, shape, and the space the jewellery occupies is instantly obvious in their signature pieces. Educated at the Sir John Cass faculty of Art, Media and Design in London, Stina Lind and Kevin James Egan developed a solid comprehension of design values and then promptly set out to interpret them using their own unique visual language.

Faaborg Museum is a complete work of art comprising painting, sculpture, architecture and furniture design. The Museum is an architectural gem. The ‘Faaborg Chair’, which was created especially for the Museum, is an iconic piece of Danish modern furniture design. Many galleries, columns, mosaics and coloured cabinets combine to produce a special magic – it’s as if a little piece of the Mediterranean has appeared in southern Funen, Denmark. The Museum has so much to offer and we welcome you to a wonderful world of art.
