Bio:
Danish ceramics from the mid-20th century are often characterised by playful and folkloristic decoration, where everyday life and traditional motifs were rendered in a simple, almost naïve style. These plates represent a combination of functional tableware and decorative craftsmanship, today sought after by collectors for their period charm and cultural significance.
