Esteri Tomula, 4 Spice Pots, Arabia, 1970s

About the Item

Product description: On offer we have these 4 spice pots. Esteri Tomula used the flora of Finland as inspiration for the painting made on her simple but dutiful items. At first glance, I was fascinated by the cuteness of these spice pots, but when I looked closely the design appeared to be very delicate as well. Lining up the spice pots creates a nice whole. A nice feature is that the names of the spices are written on the pots in multiple languages: Swedish, Finnish, English and French. Both in a modern- as well as in a retro-style kitchen these pots will shine. Product condition: Some of the pots have cracks, some discoloration and paint loss is appearing as well. The shade of paint varies depending on the pot. There is a slight chip on the bottom and edge of the clove pot, and there is a protrusion on the inside. The pots seem to have been used before and the inside of the pots have a slight odor, the cork feels a little sticky. Total weight: 713g. Height: 7.7 cm Width (Max): 6 cm
