ABOUT PRODUCTID 30175
This Søholm ceramic dish from the 1960s, designed by Noomi Backhausen and Poul Brandborg, exemplifies Danish mid-century design. Crafted from stoneware with a warm beige base, it features hand-painted abstract motifs in shades of blue, brown, and olive green. The surface is finished with a semi-matte glaze that offers a gentle sheen, while the softly speckled texture highlights its artisanal character. The interior displays concentric circles and organic, freeform patterns, with a slightly raised rim finished in natural brown and accented by a blue band. The unglazed base reveals the fine-grained texture of the stoneware. Its shallow, wide proportions (30 cm in diameter, 6 cm in height) make it both a functional vessel and a decorative object. The dish is in good condition, showing minor surface scratches and typical signs of gentle use, with no chips or cracks.This piece speaks with the voice of Danish mid-century modern, reflecting an era when designers embraced natural materials and abstract, nature-inspired motifs. Its organic shape and hand-applied patterns evoke the atmosphere of the 1960s, a time when utilitarian art was meant to delight the eye and accompany everyday rituals. The harmonious color composition mirrors the tranquility of the Scandinavian landscape, while the artisanal details recall the individuality of each piece produced by the Søholm workshop.It can be used as a centerpiece on a light-colored living room table or hung on the wall to emphasize its collectible character. The dish pairs well with mid-century modern furniture, such as simple wooden sideboards and textiles in natural hues
