Antique Rustic Plate with Blue Scallop Motif
A very charming hand painted plate dating back to the early 1800s. The antique plate originates from Grottaglie in southern Puglia, a town renowned for its ceramic craft and tradition. It would have been used during family meal times, perhaps as a side plate. The well loved piece features a delicate hand painted scallop design in a darker blue with a softer blue border that rims the edge of the plate, set against the milky white glaze. The small plate shows its characteristic signs of age with a wonderful patina, brought about authentically from years of daily use and the passing of time. This rustic piece would make a lovely addition to the kitchen or table setting, or as a decorative display, adding some country charm to any space.
Found in Martina Franca
a town in in the valle d’Itria known for its fine examples of baroque architecture.
Dimensions: H3.5cm x W21cm x D21cm
These are handmade antique ceramics that are perfectly imperfect and some have been used for generations, so please expect some cracks, and chips, and discolouration. These individual characteristics are part of the charm and unique quality of each piece. Please note, colour may vary from screen to screen.
