This eight-piece ceramic peanut set is a characteristic design by the Dutch earthenware factory Ravelli, produced in the 1970s. The ensemble, consisting of a serving dish, six small bowls, and the original spoon, represents the functional and organic aesthetic characteristic of post-war Dutch design.
The set is crafted from high-quality ceramics and displays a strong visual contrast due to the finish. The exterior features a dark brown, almost black matte glaze, while the interior is finished with a white, glossy glaze. The organic, asymmetrical design of the bowls and the matching spoon emphasize the artisanal character of the tableware. The underside of the pieces is clearly marked with the name Ravelli and the model number, confirming the authenticity of this vintage set.
The entire set is in excellent vintage condition, with the original finish and characteristic patina beautifully preserved. The set is remarkably complete, including the often missing original serving spoon, which contributes to the collector's value of this item. This refined set makes a stylish addition to a coffee table or sideboard in a Mid-Century Modern or contemporary interior. It is not only a functional object for serving refreshments, but also a tangible piece of Dutch design history that integrates effortlessly into a collection of twentieth-century ceramics.
