Baking Dish: Arabia Finland Liekki Flame Nesting Roasting Set, 3

A Rare Scandinavian Oval Roasting Platter Set.

Complete three-piece graduated nesting set of vintage mid-century modern Scandinavian ceramic oval roasting platters from the highly coveted Arabia Finland "Liekki" (Flame) collection.

Finding an intact, three-tiered nesting trio of this calibre is a phenomenal rarity on the secondary market.

Original Intended Use: Professional baking, roasting family meals, or serving sizzling hot oven entrees straight to a dining table.
More Details

The set beautifully spans from an everyday kitchen baker to a monumental holiday statement server.

Each piece is coated in a velvety, ultra-smooth matte dark chocolate brown metallic glaze that replicates the industrial feel of cast iron while maintaining the delicate organic warmth of elite studio pottery.

Designed with integrated, low-profile tab handles flaring perfectly from the rims, these sleek oven-to-table pieces represent the ultimate expression of minimalist functionalism.

The heavy vitrified stoneware bodies nest seamlessly inside one another for a visually striking, space-saving presentation.

The undisputed crown jewel of this set is the massive 42cm (FK 42) platter—the largest size ever manufactured in the lineage, which was produced in strictly limited numbers compared to the smaller variations.

Adding immense historical value, two pieces feature pristine green factory stamps dating their production precisely to December 1970 ("12-70") and February 1971 ("2-71").
Did you Know?

Did you know that while individual Arabia Finland "Liekki" pans occasionally surface, a complete matching three-piece nesting set like this is exceptionally scarce and highly sought after by global collectors?

Designed by the legendary Ulla Procopé for Arabia Finland in 1957, the line remains celebrated in design museums for its advanced fire-resistant ceramic compound that allowed home cooks to use the cookware directly over open gas flames and stovetops.
