A monumental 45cm mid-century modern display platter featuring an intricate, brutalist-folk geometric design. Heavily inspired by classic Danish Royal Copenhagen Fajance wares. An exceptional unmarked statement piece with minor edge wear.
The Design & Style
This is a monumental, architecturally scaled vintage art pottery platter measuring an impressive 45cm in length by 37cm in width. Strikingly designed in the distinctive mid-century Scandinavian modern aesthetic, it features a dense, highly intricate geometric and abstract folk composition.
The design features a centralized rectangular medallion that flows outward into repeating borders of hand-painted hearts, stylized sunbursts, and fine-line crescents. It perfectly captures the classic "Baca" style colorway of the era, utilizing a soft satin-matte cream backdrop accented with rich manganese browns and muted olive-green washes.
Maker Note & Attribution
Please note that while this piece bears an incredible likeness to the famous mid-century Fajance series produced by Royal Copenhagen in Denmark, the maker remains officially unconfirmed. There are hand-painted artisan studio marks on the base ("AC 7.1."), but no clear factory stamp. It is being sold strictly as a spectacular, high-quality studio piece crafted in the definitive Danish Modern style.
