The design reflects Franck's characteristic approach to functionalism, in which form was reduced to its essential elements while remaining practical and visually expressive. KF1 was also among Franck's works exhibited at the 1957 Milan Triennale, where he was awarded the Grand Prix. The original KF1 was produced from 1958 to 1962. The model was revived in 1990–1991 as part of Arabia's Pro Arte production, and later returned to production from 2005 to 2017. During this final period, the piece was presented under the name Lokerovati, while KF1 remained the model designation. The three production periods therefore refer to the same Kaj Franck design, rather than to three different models. Today, KF1 is especially interesting as a design that was produced in distinct periods while retaining its original form. The later Lokerovati designation can therefore be understood as part of the model's production history, making the piece particularly interesting to collectors tracing the evolution of Franck's design across different eras.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arabia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48645526192457,"sku":"842804","price":310.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/1803\/8601\/files\/42804TV2.jpg?v=1698875151"},{"product_id":"plate-timo-sarpaneva-iittala","title":"Plate, Timo Sarpaneva, Iittala","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"copied-from\" content=\"wysihtml\"\u003e\u003cmeta content=\"wysihtml\" name=\"copied-from\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigner: Timo Sarpaneva \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eObject: Plate\u003cbr\u003eModel: No model designation\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Standalone piece\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Iittala\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eDate of Manufacture: 1957 \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Glass \u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Free-blowing\u003cbr\u003eColor: Moss green, dark blue\u003cbr\u003eWidth:  295 mm\u003cbr\u003eLength: 295 mm\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 29 mm\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 885 g\u003cbr\u003eCondition: \u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition with minimal signs of wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSigned: \"Timo Sarpaneva Iitala -57\".\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNumbered: Unnumbered\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKeyword: Royal SiO2 \u003cspan\u003eExclusive.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"copied-from\" content=\"wysihtml\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iittala","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48894983668041,"sku":"856374","price":1140.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/1803\/8601\/files\/56374TGEV1.jpg?v=1781073102"},{"product_id":"serving-platter-kf1-kaj-franck-arabia","title":"Serving platter KF1, Kaj Franck, Arabia","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"copied-from\" content=\"wysihtml\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigner: Kaj Franck\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eObject: Serving platter\u003cbr\u003eModel: KF1\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Standalone piece\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Arabia\u003cbr\u003ePeriod of Manufacture: 1958-1962\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: \u003cspan\u003eF\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eaience\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: \u003cspan\u003eSlip casting\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eColor: Brown\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 235 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 23\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e5 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e40 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e700\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: \u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition with minimal signs of wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSigned: Unsigned (As Issued)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNumbered: Unnumbered\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKeyword: Hors d’œuvre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eDesigned by Kaj Franck in 1957 for Arabia, KF1 is a distinctive serving piece built around a square form and four recessed sections.

Inspired by pastoral poetry, the composition brings together human figures, birds, flowers, foliage and other elements of nature in a richly detailed, almost storybook-like world. Fine black linework and rich cobalt blue give the decoration its distinctive character. On the AJ61 serving tray, the generous surface allows Tomula's intricate illustration to unfold as one continuous composition rather than a repeating pattern. The restrained form gives the artwork space to take centre stage, making the tray as much a display of Tomula's artistry as a functional object. Produced from 1965 to 1969, the AJ61 is considerably less commonly found than the smaller Pastoraali tableware pieces. Its distinctive format and celebrated decoration make it highly sought after by collectors worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arabia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55039589646665,"sku":"848594","price":230.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/1803\/8601\/files\/848594TGEV1.jpg?v=1786453218"},{"product_id":"platter-ab-paju-anja-jaatinen-winquist-arabia","title":"Platter AB, Paju, Anja Jaatinen-Winquist, Arabia","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Details\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigner: Anja Jaatinen-Winquist\u003cbr\u003eObject: Platter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModel: AB\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Paju\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Arabia\u003cbr\u003ePeriod of Manufacture: 1970-1972\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Hard faience\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Jiggered \/ Machine-formed\u003cbr\u003eColor: Blue, white\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 358 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 358 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight: 45 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 1810\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: \u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition with minimal signs of wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSigned: \"Arabia FINLAND AIJ\/NA\".\u003cbr\u003eNumbered: Unnumbered\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKeyword: \u003cspan\u003eSubstantial.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eCreated by Anja Jaatinen-Winquist in the early 1970s, Paju is one of Arabia's distinctive hand-painted cobalt-blue decorations. Inspired by the Finnish word for willow, the design combines flowing floral and leaf-like brushwork with varying shades of blue, creating a lively rhythm against the white faience. The AB platter is one of the larger formats used for the Paju decoration. Its broad surface gives the hand-painted composition room to unfold, while the variations in brushwork and colour intensity make each piece subtly individual. Produced by Arabia from 1970 to 1972, Paju was used on several different forms and is less commonly encountered than many of Arabia's better-known decorative series. Its expressive hand-painted decoration, substantial format and Finnish design heritage make the Paju AB platter a particularly appealing piece for collectors worldwide.\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arabia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55082377871689,"sku":"800144","price":120.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/1803\/8601\/files\/800144TGEV1.jpg?v=1786968727"},{"product_id":"platter-ab-palermo-dorrit-von-fieandt-arabia","title":"Platter AB, Palermo, Dorrit von Fieandt, Arabia","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Details\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigner: Dorrit von Fieandt\u003cbr\u003eObject: Platter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModel: AB\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Palermo\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Arabia\u003cbr\u003ePeriod of Manufacture: 1987-1993\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Vitro-porcelain\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Jiggered \/ Machine-formed, hand-painted\u003cbr\u003eColor: Multicolored\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 333 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 333 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight: 45 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 1410\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: \u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition with minimal signs of wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSigned: \"ARABIA FINLAND DF\/MA\".\u003cbr\u003eNumbered: Unnumbered\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKeyword: \u003cspan\u003eSubstantial.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003ePalermo was among Dorrit von Fieandt's first hand-decorated tableware designs for Arabia after she joined the company in 1986. Introduced in 1987, it brought a new hand-painted decoration to Ulla Procopé's Valencia tableware, produced by Arabia from 1987 to 1993. Rather than creating an entirely new tableware form, von Fieandt developed new decorations for existing Arabia shapes. This approach allowed familiar forms to be given a new character through colour and hand-painted ornament, while making the development of new tableware considerably more economical. Palermo became one of the earliest examples of this approach, with its richly coloured arrangement of grapes, berries and leaves bringing a distinctly botanical character to the Valencia form. The Palermo decoration was produced by hand painting, with the motif applied in varied colours across the cream-coloured surface. The result combines the established form of Ulla Procopé's Valencia with von Fieandt's expressive decoration, marking the beginning of a highly productive period in her work for Arabia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arabia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55105576436041,"sku":"847924","price":220.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/1803\/8601\/files\/847924TGEV1.jpg?v=1787214023"},{"product_id":"platter-hehku-hilkka-liisa-ahola-arabia","title":"Platter, Hehku, Hilkka-Liisa Ahola, Arabia","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Details\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesigner: Hilkka-Liisa Ahola\u003cbr\u003eObject: Platter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModel: No model designation\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Hehku\u003cbr\u003eManufacturer: Arabia\u003cbr\u003ePeriod of Manufacture: 1960s\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Faience\u003cbr\u003eTechnique: Jiggered \/ Machine-formed, Hand-painted majolica \/ In-glaze studio decoration\u003cbr\u003eColor: Multicolored\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 320 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 320 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight: 45 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWeight: 1140\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCondition: \u003cspan\u003eExcellent condition with minimal signs of wear.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSigned: \"ARABIA FINLAND HLA\/IU\".\u003cbr\u003eNumbered: Unnumbered\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKeyword: \u003cspan\u003eSubstantial\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eDesigned by Hilkka-Liisa Ahola for Arabia, Hehku is a hand-painted ceramic decoration characterised by its rich floral motif and expressive use of colour.

The design reflects Franck's characteristic approach to functionalism, in which form was reduced to its essential elements while remaining practical and visually expressive. KF1 was also among Franck's works exhibited at the 1957 Milan Triennale, where he was awarded the Grand Prix. The original KF1 was produced from 1958 to 1962. The model was revived in 1990–1991 as part of Arabia's Pro Arte production, and later returned to production from 2005 to 2017. During this final period, the piece was presented under the name Lokerovati, while KF1 remained the model designation. The three production periods therefore refer to the same Kaj Franck design, rather than to three different models. Today, KF1 is especially interesting as a design that was produced in distinct periods while retaining its original form. The later Lokerovati designation can therefore be understood as part of the model's production history, making the piece particularly interesting to collectors tracing the evolution of Franck's design across different eras.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arabia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55335142064457,"sku":"805394","price":100.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/1803\/8601\/files\/805394TGEV1.jpg?v=1789388174"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/1803\/8601\/collections\/ServingPlatters.jpg?v=1790583624","url":"https:\/\/www.royalsio2.com\/collections\/serving-platters.oembed","provider":"Royal SiO2","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
