It was designed by the artist Ulla Procope, who was one of the most significant creators of the so-called golden age of Finnish design.

The Ruska series has become one of the best sales lines in its history.

Due to its popularity, its production continued in 1990.

It has become a classic Scandinavian design.

For the first time a matt glaze was used.

In addition to straight lines, the series is characterized by a brown, heterogeneous shade.

An extremely stylish, 'mottled' effect has been achieved, which gives the vases from the collection a unique character.



The dishes from the collection have a pleasant surface to the touch. I have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
