SALAD DAYS

I grabbed this salad set as soon as I spotted it. I was pretty sure it was Scandinavian, possibly Stavangerflint or Rorstrand but I was wrong! The pattern is "Fleur" produced by TG Green in 1960, (yes TG Green who make Cornish blue and white kitchen ware). The beautiful Scandinavian inspired pattern featuring wonderful floral and herbal images reminiscent of Marianne Westman's 'Picknick' range for Rorstrand
was designed by Berit Ternell and because the hand painting was intricate and labour intensive was only available for a very short period until 1961.
