Description from the seller
Coffee service with Scandinavian mid-century design from the golden era of Swedish modernism.
This Rörstrand Kontiki service was manufactured in Sweden between 1957 and 1962. Mid-century design is characterized by: clean lines, functionality and an understated yet refined decor. The white fine stoneware porcelain is finished with a graphic gray geometric line motif and a refined gold-colored edge.
Especially the characterful shapes of the milk jug and sugar bowl give it a distinctive 1950s look.
The set consists of 4 complete breakfast sets, complemented by a milk jug and a sugar bowl:
*4 cups – Ø 7 cm, height 7.5 cm.
*4 saucers – Ø 13.5 cm.
*4 breakfast plates – Ø 18 cm.
*1 milk jug – height 10 cm, Ø ca. 7 cm.
*1 sugar bowl – height 7 cm, Ø ca. 10 cm
Total: 14 pieces.
The Kontiki series had a short production period and is attractive to enthusiasts of Rörstrand, Swedish porcelain and authentic Scandinavian design.
The set is in excellent vintage condition. The decor and the gold-edged rims are well preserved. Light signs of use and aging are consistent with a dinnerware set of about 65 years old.
A stylish and modern coffee service as a collectible object or for a beautifully set table.
Carefully packaged and shipped with a traceable code.
