Thank you for viewing! The item I am offering for sale is: Arabia Valencia Cake Dessert Plate 19.2cm, set of 3. ~Valencia~ A series designed by Ulla Procope, a representative designer of Arabia. The elegant and refined decorations created by Ulla Procope are highly acclaimed as the most beautiful in Arabia and are one of the most valuable series. Since its production began in 1960, it has been loved as a long-selling series until 2002. The highlight of this design is the artistic, calligraphic brushwork that requires advanced techniques. Due to the characteristics of hand-painted patterns, each piece is very unique, and the colors change from pale watercolor tones to deep, luxurious tones (due to the reaction of paint and glaze). This color change creates a sense of three-dimensionality and depth in the simple design. The patterns are all designed freehand, making each piece a one-of-a-kind item in the world. Also, you cannot see the freehand signature on the back of newer pieces. The only ones that can be seen are those produced for domestic sales in Finland in the early 1960s. The proof of this is the "UP" written on the back, which is Ulla Procope's initials. The initials after that are those of the painter. (The items this time are all from the same painter, and are a valuable set of 3 with matching patterns and colors.) Even after decades, its form and design have not faded at all, and it is a very popular series that is treasured as a vintage item in Finland. Size (approx. cm) Diameter 19.2 x Height 1.9 This item has been stored at home. Although it is only a casual inspection, I have stored it with care, so it is a very beautiful item with no noticeable aging or scratches. *Because of the strong spotlight, what looks like scratches in the photos is mainly the reflection of light caused by the unevenness of the paint thickness. ☆Please feel free to comment if you have any concerns. ☆I have checked carefully, but please forgive me if there are any extremely small scratches or oversights. ☆As with all ceramic products, please forgive any small dots or air bubbles from the manufacturing process. ☆There is no original box.
