About the Item

Glit Pottery was founded in 1958 by Einar Flason, a businessman; Petur Samundsen, then head of the Federation of Icelandic Industries, sculptor and ceramic artist. Glit was adamantly devoted to utilizing Icelandic clay and ground minerals in production during its first decade of operation— especially hardened lava. The pottery company operated at Othingata downtown Reykjavik until 1971, when the decision was made to expand the company and move its operations to Höfthi. The company's time at Othnsgata is often referred to as the "Old Glit", and the company as it operated at Höfthi is called "The Big Glit." Set includes 2 cups: 4 x 5.5 x 5, 1 pot: 6.5 x 8.25 x 2.5 and a plate: 6 x .75 x 6
