蓋付きで揃う希少な逸品 2年間だけ生まれた幻のシュガーボウル
This rare Crocus sugar bowl is a masterpiece from ARABIA, a leading Finnish tableware manufacturer. It comes with a rare lid. The Crocus series name comes from a type of iris flower. The design was created by Esteri Tomura, known for his Flora, Valm, and Botanica collections, and his expertise in incorporating natural flowers into his designs.
The Crocus series comes in three varieties: black and white, color, and black and white with gray rim. This is the relatively rare black and white version. Crocus was only produced for two years, from 1978 to 1979. Reprints have been released in recent years, but they differ from the vintage versions in certain respects, such as a softer shape and a reproduction mug that wasn't included in the original.
This sugar bowl is a rare item that has never been resold and is only available on the vintage market.
