Kristian Vedel designed a series of stackable plates and bowls in 1955 for Torben Ørskov's shop "Form & Colors". It is for this series that this set belongs to.
In 1961 this series, made of melamine, won a gold medal at La Triennale di Milano.
The series was taken out of production around 1972, due to the oil crisis, as melamine is extracted from natural oil and could no longer be produced.

All 3 parts are with chips. One cup has chip at the top, the other has remnants of a golden logo. The lid has chips on the top and bottom.
