Arabia Uhtua Teacup 0,28 l, Vintage

Uhtua (a village in Karelia) was famous for its tradition of singing the poems of Kalevala. You might still find these beautiful shades of blue in its traditional wooden houses. This simple series creates a beautiful rustic lakeside feel and has a calm and composed atmosphere.

The stripes create a watercolour-like effect, which brings variation and liveliness to an otherwise simple pattern. The hand-painting gives an authentic artisanal feel to this Nordic vintage series.

A set of a cup and a saucer for hot drinks. Usually used for serving tea, but also hot chocolate or coffee with milk.

There are some imperfections on these cute teacups, such as a few scratches and marks of use. There might also be unevenness on the glazing, like tiny lumps or dents. In some cases there are a few tiny black dots or some minor colour variation on the glazing. Please see additional photos of examples.

They are however in a rather good vintage condition overall.
