A striking vintage Arabia Ritari vase<\/b><\/span>, designed by celebrated Finnish ceramic designer <\/span>Raija Uosikkinen<\/b><\/span> and produced in Finland between <\/span>1986 and 1989<\/b><\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRitari<\/b><\/span>\u201d means <\/span>\u201cKnight\u201d<\/b><\/span> in Finnish, referring to the distinctive medieval-inspired figures that dominate the decoration. The vase features an elaborate scene of a richly dressed knight accompanied by stylised birds, surrounded by architectural and geometric ornamentation.<\/span><\/p>\n

The restrained palette of deep cobalt blue, brown, ochre, grey and cream<\/b><\/span> gives the piece a particularly strong graphic character. Fine details, repeated geometric borders and stylised forms are characteristic of Raija Uosikkinen\u2019s decorative work for Arabia.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Ritari decoration was produced using screen-print decoration (serikuvakoriste)<\/b><\/span> and had a relatively short production period from <\/span>1986 to 1989<\/b><\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The underside carries the original ARABIA FINLAND<\/b><\/span> factory mark together with the printed signature:<\/span><\/p>\n

DESIGN R. Uosikkinen<\/b><\/p>\n

A distinctive example of late-20th-century Finnish ceramic design and an attractive collector\u2019s piece from one of Arabia\u2019s most recognised decorative designers.<\/p>\n
