Mid-century Scandinavian decanter service from the finish studio of Arabia. Featuring a figural decanter with “hat” stopper and five matching shot cups / beakers in differing hatched designs intended for schnapps. Finished in a chocolate brown glaze with ivory white Sgraffito decoration. Designed by eira käär and leena vuorinen as part of their tarina series in 1954 and in production at Arabia up until 1963. All pieces are stamped with the studios marks beneath as noted. The decanter measures 200mm tall by 80mm in diameter at the base. The shot cups measure 42mm in diameter by 40mm tall apiece. Excellent vintage order. Some burst bubbles within the glaze from manufacture. Circa mid century Finland.
