19th Century Italian Blue Striped Bowl
A charming hand-painted plate that is typical of Pugliese ceramics, with a minimalism that makes it easy to coordinate with any space or setting.
Dating back to the late 1800s, the plate would have been primarily used by a family at mealtimes. The plate features hand-painted lines in ink blue encircling the edges of the plate, set against a milky white glaze.
The old farmhouse pottery from Puglia, like this antique plate, is thick and robust, and has a lovely handmade feel. The well loved piece shows its characteristic signs of age with a wonderful patina and would have been regularly used for domestic purposes up until at least the mid 1900s.
