About the Item

Gunvor Olin-Grönqvist for Arabia Large dish, 1970s. Ceramic dish with a graphic fruit motif in black on a mustard-yellow glaze – a characteristic example of Olin-Grönqvist’s playful line work and Arabia’s decorative design language of the era. Origin: Finland. Designer: Gunvor Olin-Grönqvist. Material: Ceramic. Dimensions: D. 31 cm. Period: 1970s. Condition: Excellent condition with minor signs of wear. Gunvor Olin-Grönqvist (1928–2005) was a key figure in Arabia’s design department from the 1950s to the 1990s. Her work ranges from folk-art inspired decoration to modern graphic expression, often defined by freehand line drawings and warm colour palettes. Arabia in the 1970s embraced strong artistic identities and functional forms, and Olin-Grönqvist’s designs are today sought-after collectible pieces.
