XL Antique Initialled 'FP' Plate
An extra large serving plate from Puglia dating back to the early 1900s, with its unique initials representing the family to whom it belonged. The hand painted initials are encircled by a modern colour combination of pastel green and ochre brown circles, set against a buttermilk glaze, giving it a very unique character. This hand thrown plate would have been primarily used for domestic, everyday life and more specifically serving a family during mealtimes - and would have taken pride of place in the kitchen credenza. The old stoneware of the southern Italian regions of Basilicata, Puglia and Calabria is thick and robust with a lovely handmade feel. Today it would be perfect to add some country charm to any kitchen or table setting.
Found in Martina Franca
the elegant hilltop town of the Valle d’Itria known for its baroque architecture.
Dimensions: H7cm x W39cm x D39cm
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.
