This 13.5-inch Mariposa ceramic platter or chop plate is simply delightful. From the discontinued Xanadu line, this light white serving piece features a handpainted spongeware-like wide sage green border and a light tan edge meant to mimic bamboo. Its rim is raised to 1.5 inches in height.

This platter is in spectacular condition: There are no cracks, no crazing and virtually no signs of use. Its only flaws are a few pen-point size dings on the underside of the platter (see last photo). One of the platters (there are 2 available) has a barely there blue dot in one corner of its white portion (see 2nd to last photo). The other platter has a very small spot of tan paint on the underside of its white outer rim, which looks to be original to its production (see 3rd to last photo). 

This spectacular and summery piece is packed with gloss and shine. One platter is marked "Handpainted for Mariposa in Italy." The other says "Jilly Walsh 2000 for Mariposa Made in Italy." The platters are identical otherwise.

If you are interested in both pieces, please message me.

*Please note: I have additional Xanadu items listed on eBay, including a bamboo and fruit serving platter, a bamboo and bird platter, as well as some smaller-sized bird and fruit plates from this line.
