Description

Produced by Stavangerflint in Norway between 1956 and 1962, these 'Palett' espresso cups and saucers reflect the optimism of postwar Scandinavian design. The factory began production in 1949 and quickly became an important Norwegian ceramics manufacturer, exporting internationally. Palett, decoration number 554, was produced with cups in six contrasting colours, combining glossy black, pastel interiors and gold detailing. Often described by collectors as Harlequin, the pattern has become a distinctive example of 1950s Norwegian tableware design.
