This is a dinner plate from the Anemone series by the renowned Swedish pottery manufacturer Rörstrand. It's a charming piece featuring an anemone floral pattern. The Anemone series was produced for a relatively short period, from 1965 to 1968. The 1960s were a time when designs were considered pop, and traditional wreath patterns dominated. Given the era's traditional aesthetic, the Anemone series' simplicity made it seem unorthodox. While it gradually gained popularity after production ceased, it has not been reissued to this day. As a result, despite its popularity, it is only available on the vintage market.
Anemone has a weak brown glaze, which means paint loss is likely to occur and cutlery marks are easily visible. This, combined with the short production period, makes it a rare product, and those in good condition are gradually becoming scarce.
