It is a bowl of the famous Swedish kiln Gustavsberg. Gustavsberg has produced famous tableware with two elements: pattern and color scheme. It was designed by the company's legendary designer, Stig Lindberg.
It was produced in 1969 by Lindberg, who had reached maturity through the golden age of the middle of the 20th century, called the mid-century. Rosenfeld means "garden of roses", and the whole area is covered with roses. Since it was only produced for only 3 years, it is a rare item that is rarely seen even in Sweden.
All Gustavsberg bowls from this period are made using the same mould. There are 17 cm bowls of the same type in the masterpiece Versa, Prunus, and the cute Pinta series. Once the white porcelain pottery is finished, various pattern variations can be finished by changing the transfer paper that is pasted on the plain base. After the transfer paper is crimped, it is fixed by applying a thin layer of transparent glaze and firing again.

About Stig Lindberg
Stig Lindberg (1916-1982)
Born in Umeå , a city in northern Sweden. After studying painting at Konstfack , the capital Stockholm, he joined Gustavsberg in 1937 . Twelve years later, in 1949 , he succeeded Wilhelm Koge as the company's art director. Since then, Lindberg has released numerous works as a standard-bearer of Swedish modernism in the middle of the 20th century. The Gustavsberg company in the era when Lindberg was active reached its heyday, and even now the works of that time are recognized as the work of the golden age called "mid-century" and have high value. Gustavsberg had an in-house atelier called G-Studion ( G Studio) apart from the mass-produced line, where young artists such as Lisa Larson worked hard to produce one-of-a-kind art pieces. Lindberg has also produced many atelier works by exercising his skills with young artists. Lindberg retired from the front line in 1980 and opened a workshop in Italy where he retired, but died two years later.
