Josef Ekberg (1877–1945) was a pioneering Swedish ceramic artist and designer who spent his entire career at the Gustavsberg Porcelain Factory. Ekberg is best known for developing the sgraffito technique—where patterns are carved into glazed ceramics to reveal contrasting layers—which he created with Gunnar Wennerberg and showcased at the 1900 Paris World Exhibition.
