Large Antique Rustic Blue Stripe Plate
A charming hand painted plate that is typical of Pugliese ceramics, with a minimalism that renders it quite ‘modern’ in design. Dating back to the mid 1800s, the large antique plate features hand painted sea blue stripes around the rim, set against a buttermilk glaze base. The hand thrown plate would have been primarily used for domestic purposes up until the mid 1900s serving a family during meal times. Traditionally the family would all eat off the same plate, beginning with the father and ending with the children. The old farmhouse pottery from Puglia, like this plate, is thick and robust, and has a lovely handmade feel. The antique plate shows signs of its years of use and has developed a wonderful authentic patina over time. This piece would make a lovely addition to the kitchen bench top or table, especially when teamed with the matching plates as seen in the images.
Found in Martina Franca
the charming hilltop town of the valle d’Itria known for its baroque architecture.
Dimensions: H5cm x W29cm x D29cm
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.
