Bio:
Gefle Porcelainsfabrik was founded in 1910 in Gävle, but faience production in the region dates back to the 19th century. Tureens and dishes with transfer-printed and relief vine decorations were popular household wares and produced in large quantities for both domestic use and export. The “Mullbär” pattern is a typical example of this late 19th-century production.
