ARABIA Ruska series oval plate, beautiful brown finish. - Brand: ARABIA - Size: 36.3x24.5cm - Shape: Oval - Color: Brown While my memory isn't perfect, I purchased this at the Isetan Main Store in the 1970s and have kept it carefully stored in a cupboard ever since. I believe it has been used less than 10 times. There may be some minor scratches and scuffs, but they are not noticeable. Please check the photos. The backstamp on this item has faded due to careful washing after use. Please understand that this is a used item and purchase it only if you are satisfied. It appears to be oven-safe. ——————————————————- For those looking for this item, no explanation is probably necessary, but Ruska is a representative work of Arabia designer Ulla Procope. "Ruska" means the most beautiful autumn colors in Finland. It is finished in a deep brown color, like the trees in the forest that turn color in the deepening autumn. Ruska has a unique manufacturing method (spraying black iron powder on a matte glaze), so no two pieces have the same texture. Therefore, it can be said that all works are one-of-a-kind. The varying finishes, each with a different expression, are the charm of Ruska, and there is a joy of encountering a unique and warm piece of tableware. Ruska is a very popular Nordic vintage tableware in Japan. Thank you for viewing.
