Søholm Stentøj, also known as Søholm Stoneware, is a Danish ceramics company that was founded in 1835 on the island of Bornholm. The company is known for producing high-quality stoneware pottery with distinctive glazes and designs. In the mid-20th century, Søholm Stentøj became known for its modernist designs, which were influenced by the Scandinavian design movement.

One of Søholm Stentøj's most famous designers was Noomi Backhausen, who worked for the company from the 1950s to the 1970s. Backhausen's designs were characterized by their simple shapes and bold, colorful glazes, and her work is highly sought after by collectors today. Søholm Stentøj's designs have won numerous awards over the years, including the prestigious Grand Prix at the Milan Triennale in 1954. The company's pottery can be found in museums and private collections around the world.
