Arabia Finland “Ovilaatta” Door Sign – Knight Pattern by Raija Uosikkinen, 1964

An exceptionally rare piece of Finnish ceramic history — a vintage Arabia Finland “Ovilaatta” (Dörrplatta / door sign) featuring the striking Knight motif, designed by Raija Uosikkinen in 1964.

This door plaque belongs to the same creative moment as Uosikkinen’s celebrated “Korttipakka” (Card Deck) series — sharing the same bold, graphic character and playful medieval imagery. Rarely seen on the market, it is a true collector’s find that doubles as a wall display piece with unmistakable Nordic charm.

The reverse side retains its two original unused mounting stickers — a testament to its excellent preservation over more than 60 years.
