This is a masterpiece Silvia designed by Rorstrand, a long-established tableware manufacturer representing Sweden, to commemorate the 250th anniversary of its founding. The product form was designed by Marianne Westmann, who is famous for Monami.
"250 ar Jubileumsservis" under the backstamp is Swedish for "250th anniversary tableware". Compared to other Rolstrand products, the stamp is more decorative and conveys the effort put into the anniversary model. As for the workmanship as a vessel, among the Rorstrand products of the 1970s, the luster of the glaze and the clarity of the pattern boasts a remarkably high quality. It is a beautiful tableware with a high degree of perfection, such as not being able to see the support marks (marks) peculiar to Scandinavian tableware.
This is Silvia's teapot. Some Silvia teapots are vertically long, but this one has a large-capacity shape. It will be the largest teapot in the series. The original strainer (tea strainer) is also attached, and all accessories are in good condition.

About Marianne Westman
Marianne Westman ( Marianne Westman, 1928-2017 )
Born in the Dalarna region in central Sweden, known for its Dalarna Horse. In 1950, at the age of 22, he joined Rorstrand as a designer, and until 1971, he created many designs. It is said that she was initially reluctant to work as a designer for a major pottery manufacturer. It seems that he really wanted to open his own pottery workshop in his hometown of Dalarna. However, her monami pattern quickly became a representative design of Swedish mid-century. Westman 's works are characterized by many bohemian designs that are conscious of plants and freehand drawings.
