Figgjo//Stavangerflint “Florry”

Stavangerflint//Figgjo “Florry” 1960s

This is a design by Nils Aarrestad Siversten(b1920, Stavanger, Norway) called “Florry”. A stoneware (Ildfast) series. From what I can find the design dates to 1960 .

It was designed at Stavangerflint, and you can find some with the Stavangerflint stamp, and others with the Figgjo stamp – which means it was still in production when Figgjo and Stavangerflint merged in 1968.

Nils Siversten also designed for Stavangerflint “Amber”, “Bardu”, “Beito”, and “Karin” designs as well as a very popular series of decorative objects under the name of “Rondane”.

One of the charming features of this design is that the motif is a different colour on each side.
