Figgjo Tor Viking Appraisal

Mid-Century Modern Figgjo Flint Norway 'Lotte' or 'Tor Viking' Style Ceramic Coffee Pot and Sugar Bowl

This is a vintage ceramic coffee pot and matching open sugar bowl, likely produced in Norway by Figgjo Flint or a similar Scandinavian pottery house during the 1960s or 1970s. The set features a tall, cylindrical coffee pot with a long, elegant swan-neck spout and a squared handle. The exterior is finished in a glossy white glaze decorated with a repetitive, stylized leaf or laurel branch motif in shades of ochre, burnt orange, and dark brown. The coffee pot is topped with an inset lid in a solid ochre glaze with a small round finial. The base of both vessels features a distinctive dark brown or black ribbed, unglazed texture providing a brutalist contrast to the smooth body. Measuring approximately 23-25 centimeters in height according to the adjacent ruler, the set displays high-quality craftsmanship characteristic of Mid-Century Modern kitchenware. Observable condition issues include some minor chips on the rim of the sugar bowl and small dark marks or glaze imperfections on the white body of the pot, suggesting frequent use. There are no visible maker's marks in the image, but the graphic botanical design is highly reminiscent of the 'Tor Viking' or 'Lotte' series designs from the Turi-design period.
