Upsala-Ekeby, vintage bowl with leaf decorations

Upsala-Ekeby was founded outside the Swedish city of Uppsala in 1885 by the von Bahr family. The location was chosen because the area had clay that was particularly suitable for making tiles. At first, the company only produced bricks. However, it soon expanded its production to include wall tiles, masonry heaters, tableware and decorative ceramics. By the end of the 1910s, the factory was the largest factory in Scandinavia with 300 employees. Upsala-Ekeby had a short but brilliant period of art ceramics in the 1930s and 1960s. The factory shrank in the 1970s and finally closed in 1978. But the interest in Upsala-Ekeby ceramics still lives on among fans and collectors!

This bowl for sale is beige/light yellow and has gorgeous green leaf patterns decorating the edges of the bowl. The bowl was designed by Anna-Lisa Thomson in the 1950s. in color. The bottom of the bowl is stamped UE (Upsala-Ekeby).
