Kari Christensen's Tenera series earthenware dish for Royal Copenhagen

The tenera series was designed in the late 1950s by nils thorsson (1898-1975) for aluminia, whose name disappeared in 1969 to make way for that of royal copenhagen. The sets for this series were designed by other artists. Thus, the very graphic blue décor of this dish, is due to the norwegian artist kari christensen (1938-1997). It is marked under the base: 429 for the décor and 2883 for the form and initials of kari christensen. This dish was produced between 1969 and 1973.
