Rörstrand Plommon mug

The Rörstrand 'Plommon' (Plum) pattern is a classic example of Swedish ceramic design. Originally founded in 1726, Rörstrand is one of the oldest brands in Swedish design history. This specific mug features a motif of blue plums and blossoms, which is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of Nordic heritage design.

Historically, Rörstrand produced all its items in Sweden, particularly at the Rörstrand factory in Lidköping. However, following various corporate ownership changes, most production was moved abroad. In 2026, the brand remains under the ownership of Fiskars Group, a Finnish conglomerate that also owns global brands like Iittala and Gerber. Today, while the design process remains deeply rooted in Scandinavian aesthetics, the physical manufacturing of current Rörstrand stoneware typically takes place in Southeast Asia, specifically Indonesia, to maintain global supply chains.
