Frida Meyer born in 1901 – died in 1994 (born Gluud) was a porcelain painter and probably learned this art during a course in Germany around 1920. Frida Meyer lived in Forhöfningsholms and had a shop in the “horse stable” in Forhöfningsholms. She bought unpainted porcelain from various suppliers, which she then decorated. She exhibited the hand-painted items through the association “Husmoderens tarv” in Copenhagen in 1926
