Arabia Faenza Platinum Oven Dish, Vintage

Faenza (a town in Northern Italy, birthplace of faience ceramics) comes in four variations in decoration; with flowers printed in brown or blue, and with stripes either in yellow-and-black. black alone or platinum.

Arabia Faenza adds bold designs to a simple functional shape. It is a clever combination of 1950s Finnish mid-century modernism and the 1970s graphic style. Faenza's design won the gold medal in Italy in 1971 at the Faenza Ceramic Biennale.

You can combine the floral and striped variations of the Faenza decoration to create contrast between natural and geometric shapes.

Modern square or rectangular serving dishes are characterized by their versatility: they are suitable for use from oven to table and in the refrigerator. They also are stackable and suitable for smaller homes. You can combine different colours and sizes to reflect your own personal style.

This practical and rare vintage oven dish shows signs of wear, such as scratches. There are also some minor imperfections, such as tiny dark dots and pinholes and some uneven spots on the unglazed bottom ring.
