It is a classic Bersa plate from Gustavsberg, a long-established Swedish tableware maker. The designer is Swedish master Stig Lindberg. Lindberg created this leaf design in 1961. Bersa (Berså; besho, bell show) means an arbour, and is a space set up to take a rest in a corner of a park. In Scandinavia, where there are many winter days, it has a warm design that allows you to feel the fresh greenery.

It is no exaggeration to say that half of the year in Northern Europe is winter. In winter, there are only four to five hours of sunshine. Scandinavian tableware has many designs that make you feel warm even on such a winter day. The lush green of the leaves is a color scheme that brings the colors of spring days to the dining table throughout the year.

Versa also has a reprint version, but the reprint version has a lighter green color than the vintage and is a little dull. The characteristic of vintage products is the vividness of the green, and the color scheme is such that you can feel the lush green of the fresh green. Another feature of the vintage Versa plate is that the edges are raised. The reprinted version has a bowl-like shape that gradually increases in height from the center to the rim, and the vintage version is closer to a flat plate and easier to use.

Series: Bersa / Bertha
Designer: Stig Lindberg
Years: 1961-1974
Country of origin: Sweden Condition: ★★★★☆ (4: mint condition)
Slight paint loss can be seen on the petiole. If you hold the light through the entire surface, you can see faint cutlery marks, but it is in a glossy state with no cracks or chips. Bertha is prone to paint loss, so it is in a very beautiful condition among vintages. In addition, you can see the post marks (marks) caused by the manufacturing process on the hill. The unglazed parts of the rims are arranged regularly, so these are also traces of support posts during manufacturing.

About Stig Lindberg

Stig Lindberg (1916-1982)

Lindberg was born in Umeå, a central city in northern Sweden, and studied painting at the Konstfack art school in Stockholm. In 1937, he joined Gustavsberg and studied under his teacher, Wilhelm Koge, and 12 years later, in 1949, he succeeded Koge as the company's art director. Since then, Lindberg has produced numerous works as a flag bearer of Swedish modernism in the middle of the 20th century. The Gustavsberg workshop in the era when Lindberg was active has reached its heyday, and even now the works of that time are recognized as works of the golden age called "mid-century" and have high value. Lindberg's studio was called G-Studion, and young painters showed their skills. Lindberg retired in 1980 and opened a workshop in Italy where he retired, but died there two years later.
