Arabia Ruska Salad Plate (s) Finland Rustic MCM Brown/Black

Arabia Ruska Salad Plate (s) Finland Rustic MCM Brown/Black

This classic pattern from Arabia of Finland began production in 1962. The colors are brown and black but the glaze style results in pieces with a wide variation of the amount of these colors and how they were arranged on each piece. In other words, no two pieces are alike; some have more of one color than the other and some have a balance. The pieces I have listed all came from the same set but may have been purchased over time. Some have the printed white backstamp and in many cases, it has worn off. I have three levels of condition for these plates, so please read the details about each below. No chips, cracks, or crazing.

7-3/4 diameter

Condition 1: Very little, if any, evidence of use.

Condition 2: Some gray utensil lines that blend in fairly well and may have minor wear to the finish.

Condition 3: As Condition 2 but there is a 1-1/2 long line where the glaze didnt cover. See the last photo.

The Fine Print

Shipping Rate: This listing has a flat shipping rate for one piece, with an “each additional piece” price if you buy more than one (calculated automatically). My each additional piece prices are determined by how much it will cost to ship the items at least halfway across the country. I am in the Pacific Northwest. If you are anywhere west of the Rockies, contact me with your ship to zip code your shipping may be less. Combined shipping? Yes. If you purchase items from more than one of my listings at the same time, use Add to Cart for the quantity you want from each listing and then click “Request Total.” (The Request Total link is only available if you are shopping through eBays website, not on their mobile device app.) If the Request Total link is not available, you can pay for the least expensive shipping method presented and I will refund the excess. Don’t forget to change the quantity first if you want more than one of something.

Shipping Method: I ship by USPS, UPS, or FedEx, depending on the weight and destination. If you select USPS Parcel Select, I may change it to one of the other services if it offers a faster shipping speed and insurance. I am pleased to ship to APO/FPO addresses. If you are concerned about the shipping cost, please contact me before agreeing to purchase.

Ship To Address: To avoid shipping delays and possible added expense, make sure your payment source has your correct ship to address. Also, I am happy to ship to a third party, but please be sure to provide that address before making the payment. Address change requests after payment may result in cancellation of the order.

Communication: Please contact me if you have any questions about your order. Also, keep an eye on your eBay messages/emails after you make the purchase, in case I need to contact you.

Local Pickup: If you are interested in a local pickup, please contact me before purchasing so I can add that choice to the shipping options.

International Buyers: Please contact me before purchasing multiple items so I can tell you the best way to proceed. All fees incurred in your country are your responsibility. I will not mark an item as a gift on the Customs form. If Ive included eBay’s International Standard Delivery, be aware that it is economical but be sure to check the estimated delivery time – it’s slower than USPS Priority International. Most items over USD 30 will ship using eBays Global Shipping Program only.

I ship my items in corrugated cardboard boxes, with packing peanuts and bubble wrap. Based on how I pack, double boxing is not necessary and has not been factored into the estimated shipping weight. If you would like me to double-box something, please contact me ahead of time.

Payment must be received within 4 days.

Returns: If you are not pleased with your purchase, you may return it within 30 days and it must arrive in as sold condition. Please retain all packing material and/or replace damaged bubble wrap with new if necessary, to ensure an undamaged returned item. Please contact me first before starting the return process so I can have the chance to resolve the issue.
