フタ付きで揃う奇跡 2年間だけ生まれた幻のキャニスター

This is a fantastic masterpiece crocus from ARABIA, Finland's leading tableware manufacturer. Crocus is a type of iris flower. There are two types of Crocus canisters, a black and white version and a color version, but this is the black and white version. Crocus is a series that was manufactured for only two years from 1978 to 1979. In recent years, reprints of mugs, bowls, and 17cm plates have been produced.

However, the reproduction version is made in Thailand and has a sweeter form, and the canister, cup and saucer, teapot, etc. that were seen in the original Crocus are not reproduced. This item is very popular in the home country, and it is rare to see it in the vintage market, so the market price is also high. In addition, canisters are often out of stock, so it is relatively rare to have them in stock.

■Details Manufacturer: ARABIA/Arabia form design: Peter Winquist / Peter Winqvist

The main body is in dead stock condition. When you hold the lid under the light, you can see some scratches from storage, but overall it is a vintage item in very good condition.

ARABIA - Arabia

ARABIA factory

ARABIA is a ceramic manufacturer representing Finland in the 20th century. Originally, ARABIA was a factory established in Finland by Sweden's Rörstrand as a base for producing pottery for Russia. The company's name comes from the fact that it was established in the Arabian district of Helsinki, the capital.

From the 1950s to the 1980s, many world-famous designers such as Ulla Procoppe, Birger Kaipiainen, Laiya Uosikkinen, and Esteri Tomura created many works, known as the Golden Age of ARABIA. Works that had a great influence on modern modern design were created at the time, from simple Scandinavian modern designs to highly decorative and well-crafted pieces. ARABIA is known for its masterpieces such as paratissi, crocus, flora, and corari, which are both practical and decorative items unique to Scandinavian tableware that are useful for both interior and everyday use.
