Seltmann Swedish Landscapes plate / dinner plate, Ångermanland, 1987

Seltmann Swedish Landscapes plate / dinner plate with motif from Ångermanland from 1987 combines Swedish landscape atmosphere and classic utility porcelain in a way that makes it equally lovely on the table and on the wall. On the front stands the landscape's name "Ångermanland" together with the year "1987", so the plate is easy to place in the series and at the same time has clear collector interest.

The motif shows a calm Swedish landscape with water, small islands, forest-clad heights and a small collection of houses at the bottom of the picture. The blue-white decoration creates a lovely depth, where the light areas in sky and water meet darker details in trees, hills and settlement. The whole scene has a quiet, Nordic summer atmosphere with open expanses and nature close to the lived landscape.

Around the central motif is seen the series' characteristic blue flower and plant border with stylized leaves, flowers and winding ornaments. It is precisely this border that ties Seltmann Swedish landscape plates together as a series, even though each motif shows its own Swedish landscape. Therefore, Ångermanland is also beautiful to combine with other plates from the series, either as wall decoration or as a personal table setting with different landscapes.

Seltmann Weiden is known for functional porcelain, and that is also felt here. This porcelain plate is not only a collector's plate, but also a dinner plate that may be used for food. It works, for example, well as a cake plate or for a small serving, and since it is also dishwasher safe, it is easy to use in everyday life.

The plate also has two holes for hanging, so it is also ideal as wall decoration in the kitchen, summer house or among a collection of blue-white porcelain plates. As older porcelain with history, it is a good example of how beautiful decorative utility art can gain new life in a modern home.

On the back it says "Seltmann Weiden", "Bavaria W. Germany", "Qualitats Porzellan" and "Begrænsad Upplaga". The last text indicates that the release is in a limited edition.
