Fully glazed centerpiece or wall decoration depicting a green faced woman with long stemmed yellow and blue flowers on a striped dark blue background created with the sgraffito technique.

This created a unique textured ground which has become a style associated with Tilgmans Keramik in particular.

This type of work was the most popular in Mid Century Sweden alongside Tilgmans small animal figurines...
