Description

Then he set about his fishing,
And he watched his angle closely,
And he held his hand-net ready,
Dropped his angle in the water,
And he fished, and tried his fortune,
While the rod of copper trembled.”
v: 45-50

ARABIA Finland Annual Plate 1985 (Årstallrik 1985, Vuosilautanen 1985). The 1985 plate is the tenth of a series of annual plates with a Kalevala motif. The series is limited, which gives it a considerable value as a collector’s item.

The plate was designed by Arabia artist Raija Uosikkinen. It measures 20 cm / 8 inches. Made of stoneware. It comes in excellent condition with original box and a suspension device. The plate might previously have been displayed, but then with great carefulness. The original box might show some slight wear due to age.

Made in Finland.
