Arabia has been producing Finnish tableware since 1873. In 1932, Kurt Ekholm was appointed artistic director of the company and began their Art Department. This piece is from that era from the 1940s - 1960s. A true MCM piece. The piece is signed by the artist. This bowl is in excellent vintage condition with no chips, cracks, or flea bites. The white base coat was thinly applied - showing off the beautiful terracotta underneath. There are two spots where the terracotta shows quite brightly…these are not chips or cracks! The yellow and dark mauve tulips have been hand painted, accentuating the scalloped shape of the bowl. This measures approximately 5 1/2" in diameter at the top, and 2 1/2" tall.
