1960s Karla Coffee/Tea Set Designed by Sven Erik Skawonius for Upsala Ekeby Made in Sweden

This lovely, rare Scandinavian coffee/tea set was designed in the 1960s by Sven Erik Skawonius for Karlskrona (Upsala Ekeby). The style is known as Karla and is hand-painted with bold pink stripes (pattern 5223). This set consists of a coffee pot/teapot, creamer, sugar, 6 cups, 8 saucers and 8 small plates. What makes this set even more endearing is that it was once a wedding gift to a couple more than 40 years ago.   DETAILS Brand: Upsala Ekeby, Karlskrona Designer: Sven Erik Skawonius Color/Pattern: Karla, White, Pink, Stripes Period: 1960s Styles: Scandinavian Modern, Mid-Century Modern Place of Origin: Sweden Materials: Ceramic, Paint Condition: Excellent Vintage Condition, Original Unaltered Damage or Points of Notice: One tiny chip on bottom of sugar - hardly noticeable (please see photos) Dimensions: Coffee Pot/Teapot (1): 8"W x 4.25"D x 10.25"H Cups (6): 3.25"W x 2.63"D x 2.75"H Saucers (8):  5"W x 5"D x .63"H Small Plates (8): 7"W x 7"D x 1"H Creamer (1): 4"W x 2.5"D x 3.25"H
