Valencia (a city in Spain) features hand-painted cobalt blue flowers, dots, stripes and circles.

This elegant and refined decoration by Ulla Procopé is said to be Arabia's most beautiful, and certainly one their most highly-prized decorations. It is the crown jewel of the Arabia company, and has a deep mysterious and luxurious feel. The repeating pattern is mesmerising and has a deliciously hypnotic and calming effect.

The highlight of this design is the artful and calligraphic brush-strokes, which have required extreme skill. Arabia was indeed much admired for the talent of its ceramic painters. The hand-painted nature of the pattern makes each dish excitingly unique and the colours shift in tone from pale watercolour washes to deep and luxurious tones.

It is typical for the Valencia series, that the thickness of the glazing on top of the hand-paint varies. In some areas the glazing is matt and some areas it is more shiny because the glaze and the paint react with each other in the kiln.

These changes in the pattern give the simple design an exciting illusion of three-dimensionality and depth.

Don't hesitate if you want this Nordic vintage treasure for your home. People fall absolutely mad in love with this series and due to its popularity we often sell out. If we are out of stock, click on the Add to Wishlist -button to be the first to know when we have more available!.

A plate mainly for soup, that can also be used as a bowl for breakfast, pasta, rice or side dishes. These multi-purpose traditional deep plates have a decorative edge that beautifully frames the food.

The wide edge makes it easy to pass around the dishes and supports cutlery. For this reason, the deep plate also serves as a beautiful serving dish. Thanks to the edge the plate is firmly seated on drying racks.

These amazing soup plates are in good condition, but there are some imperfections in the hand-paint, such as darker coloured matt spots and tiny black or blue dots. The glazing might be a bit uneven and there are a few tiny lumps or bubbles. Please see the additional photos for an examples.
