ABOUT PRODUCTID 260
The cup and saucer set from the Gefle 'Agneta' collection represents Swedish design from the late 1960s and early 1970s, created by Helmer Ringström. Made of glazed ceramic with a smooth, glossy finish, the set is characterized by a warm, creamy off-white base color. A hand-drawn, dark brown floral motif wraps around the exterior of the cup, giving it a distinctive mid-century Scandinavian look. Inside the cup and along the saucer’s rim, a deep, reddish-brown band introduces a strong accent, contrasting elegantly with the lighter base. The cup is slightly wider than it is tall, with a simple, rounded handle, while the broad saucer mirrors the same color scheme and provides stable support. The set is preserved in very good condition with no visible damage or heavy signs of wear.This set speaks to an era when Scandinavian design explored new possibilities for everyday objects. The decoration evokes Swedish interiors where hand-drawn botanical patterns brought a sense of calm and nature to daily tea or coffee rituals. The deep band of red contrasts with the pale background, recalling the warmth of the home, while the lightness of form and clarity of ornament embody the mid-century modern philosophy: simplicity coexists with decorative detail, and utility aligns with thoughtful artistry.The Gefle 'Agneta' cup and saucer could be used in a Scandinavian-inspired dining area, either as part of a daily table setting or as a single accent piece on an open shelf. It may be combined with other vintage tableware—especially those featuring geometric or floral motifs—or displayed against a pale tablecloth and natural wood. The set lends itself easily to mid-century interiors but will also find its place in more eclectic arrangements, where authenticity and a subtle dialogue with the past are valued.
