Seltmann Swedish Landscapes plate / plate, Lappland, 1974

Seltmann Swedish Landscapes plate / plate from 1974 with the motif Lappland brings a distinctive Swedish northern lights-influenced landscape into the home. On the front appears the landscape name "Lappland" and the year "1974", and the motif opens up a calm, almost fairy-tale-like scene in blue-white porcelain decoration.

In the middle of the plate, a atmospheric motif is seen with Sami tents in the landscape, a person in front of the foremost tent, a reindeer figure in the foreground and a small vessel pulled up onto the ground. In the background, water, mountains and another reindeer can be glimpsed, which gives the motif depth and a fine story about nature, way of life and the northern Swedish landscape. The cool blue color scale suits Lappland's open expanses and quiet atmosphere beautifully.

Around the central motif runs the series' characteristic blue flower and plant border. It ties the entire Seltmann Swedish Landscapes series together and makes it easy to combine different landscapes on a plate shelf, on the wall or in a table setting. It is precisely this shared border that also gives this Swedish landscape plate a classic and cohesive expression, whether you use it alone or together with other year editions.

Seltmann Weiden is known for porcelain where the decorative and the practical go hand in hand, and this Lappland plate is a good example. It is not only for hanging and collecting, but may also be used for food. Therefore, it works well as, for example, a lunch or cake plate, where the blue-white landscape motif gives the table setting personality. The fact that it is also dishwasher safe makes it easy to put into use in everyday life.

On the back it says "Seltmann Weiden", "Bavaria W. Germany", "Qualitäts Porzellan" and "Begränsad Upplaga". The last text means that the plate was issued in a limited edition, which makes it extra interesting for collectors of Seltmann Swedish landscape plates. With the glued-on hanger on the back, it can also easily be used as wall decoration.

Older porcelain like this has a special charm. It is created to last and is a beautiful choice for those of you who would like to give quality design with history new life in a modern interior.
