I found several pieces of Arabia of Finland china at the thrift store about a week ago. There were two demitasse or child's cups, a dessert type plate, another plate about the same size that was deeper (slightly bowl-like) and a creamer. They have slightly different Arabia stamps and I've been able to research their approximate age but I can not find anything that tells me the name of this pattern. It is very similar to a child's set titled Parade, I believe. Looks like they could be the same artist. Does anybody out there know the name of this pattern?
I love Arabia's children's' ceramics; always so quirky and cute. These are a great find!
I believe these were from the "Princess" series, around 1960s.

Wow. Thank you racer. I found a few other listings with the same pattern but nobody seemed to know the name of it. This is awesome. I think the swallow bowl on the right is my favorite. The stylized peacock is so cute.
I sold this same set for $125. I found the pattern to be Fairy Tale Princess (Satuprinsessa).
Esteri Tomula. 1953 - 1957.
Thanks everyone. I love finding out more about the artist and pattern.
These are lovely patterns.
