The Arabia factory, founded in 1874, produces functional, high-quality ceramic ware. The company became world-renowned in 1945 when Kaj Franck took over product design, and people flock today to visit the factory and museum. Liekki is the most beautiful & versatile pattern of Scandinavian modern cookware. You can use it over an open fire, it can be used on both an electric or a gas stove, it's oven-proof, microwave-safe, and you can even store it in the freezer. It is perfect for heating, browning, braising, boiling, roasting, baking and it is good looking enough to be part of a dinner table setting. ; Designed-in-Finland. 2009, “Liekki by Arabia of Finland.” Designed-in-Finland, https://www.designed-in-finland.com/arabia_liekki.php Greene, Elaine. 1 Feb. 1993. “Arabia of Finland.
