ABOUT PRODUCTID 6184
This large ceramic platter, designed by Jorgen Mogensen in Denmark during the 1960s, is a testament to Scandinavian mid-century modern design. Handcrafted with a robust, solid construction and clearly signed 'JM. Denmark' on the underside, it exemplifies the authenticity of studio pottery from the era. The dominant warm, earthy brown surface is accented with beige and cream hues on the inner face, while the center features a hand-decorated, abstract geometric motif—an encircled pattern with radiating petal-like forms and small, impressed dots. The outer rim and sides reveal a subtle brown gradient, visible brushstrokes, and speckling, enhancing its rustic, artisanal quality. The interior glaze is slightly glossy, contrasting with the matte, textured exterior. The platter measures approximately 27 cm in diameter and 5 cm in height. It is preserved in very good condition, with no cracks or chips—only minor natural variations in the glaze, characteristic of its handmade vintage origin. The form of this platter echoes the spirit of its era: the 1960s in Scandinavia were marked by everyday objects elevated to the realm of functional art. The hand-decorated geometric motif, reminiscent of a stylized flower or rosette, evokes the conviviality of shared meals and the appreciation of simplicity. The thickness and weight of the ceramic speak to the importance of craft as much as design—every detail, from subtle glaze variations to the tactile brown surface, tells of the maker’s individual approach to material.
