It is a soup plate of Gefle, which was founded in Sweden in 1910. The series name Agnetha is a female name in Swedish, and is called Agnes in the English-speaking world. It's embellished with a feminine floral print, and hand-painted lines in browns and oranges along the sides for visual definition. The main body has a thick form, but it has been devised so that it does not look heavy overall. Versatile as a soup plate, pasta plate, or small salad bowl.
In 1979 Gefle was merged into a company called Uppsala-Ekeby. One of the last works labeled Gefre is Agnetta here. The back stamp is stamped with the VDN, a quality assurance mark that began in 1951. Since the engraving of the VDN mark ended in 1973, it was manufactured between 1970 and 1973.
