Vintage Catherineholm Norway Cobalt Blue Enamel Stainless Steel MCM Tray

This vintage Catherineholm Norway tray is a fine example of Scandinavian Mid-Century Modern design. The piece features a rich cobalt blue enamel interior framed by polished stainless steel, showcasing the bold simplicity and functional elegance that defined the modernist movement of the 1950s and 1960s.

Designed under the artistic direction of Grete Prytz Kittelsen, one of Norway’s most influential designers, Catherineholm enamelware became highly regarded for its durable craftsmanship and striking color palettes. While the company is widely recognized for its Lotus pattern, solid enamel trays such as this remain desirable for their minimalist form and versatility.

This tray is both functional and decorative, suitable for serving, entertaining, or displaying as part of a curated Mid-Century Modern collection. Its vibrant cobalt surface creates a striking contrast with the stainless steel base, making it an ideal piece for collectors, design enthusiasts, or anyone seeking authentic Scandinavian modernism.
