Set of 3 Collectible Antique GUSTAVSBERG Sweden oval dinner plates ‘OPAK’ for pasta or stew from 1916s / 22 cm.
In 1826, the wholesaler Herman Öhman tore down the old brick mill and started a porcelain factory on the site. His plan was to supply the growing Swedish middle class with porcelain goods. However, there were major production problems in the factory, and the quality of the produced goods was substandard. No artists were recruited, and the Gustavsberg pottery was highly influenced by German and English shapes and decorations.
