Arabia Miranda Blue Plate 17 cm, Vintage

Miranda (a female given name meaning "worthy of admiration") features a sweet and simple flower decoration in blue or chocolate brown.

This pattern was made using the air-brush stencil technique, which creates beautifully soft and fuzzy edges around the pattern. This technique has a strong vintage feel and was very popular in the 60s and 70s.

Stencil-printed decorations are simple but adorable: flowers, dots and stripes. Stencils were used to produce dishwasher safe everyday coffee cups with a bit rougher quality.

A side plate, dessert plate, bread plate or a plate for cake or sweet buns. This plate forms a set with a coffee cup. A celebratory Finnish coffee setting includes a coffee cup, saucer, cake plate with a spoon and a serviette for every guest.

This plate also functions as a bread plate at the dinner table.

These cute plates are in good condition, but have some small imperfections, such as some typical inaccuracy with the blue stencil colour and a few tiny lumps or dents on the glazing. Please see the photos.
