Handmade in central Spain, this glazed earthenware plate features polychromatic decoration in blue, green, yellow, orange, and maroon. A parladot, a bird motif common in Valencian pottery, sits in the center.
Popular in aristocratic 13th century lusterware, this bird motif has become a mainstay in Spanish pottery made in the southeast.
Step back and you’ll notice that the bird sits within a heptagram. Each vertices of this 7-point star bears a fringed motif that frames a colorful vegetal motif similar to a reed.
Richly decorative pottery like this ceramic plate makes for perfect wall display.
Dimensions: 23 cm in diameter x 3 cm deep
Hanging your decorative plate: A small incision in the foot of the plate allows for hanging. Our heavier items like lebrillos require a wall mount.
Kindly Note: Small chips and discolouration are part of the charm of handmade antique and vintage pottery. For questions or specific sourcing requests, please get in touch.
