Bordallo Pinheiro Platter
Dimensions are approximately:
43cms (17" ins) x 32.5cms (12 3/4' ins)
This cabbage ware platter was likely produced by popular European company Bordallo Pinheiro in Portugal. This is a good sized platter that will mix and match perfectly with any existing dinnerware... scalloped rim and the raised pattern is very tactile... lots of rustic character!
The iconic Cabbage pattern, highly coveted by collectors, was introduced in the 1990s. Mainly produced in Green or White, some limited edition colours were manufactured in Pink, Blue and Honey Gold which are very sought after today.
A 'must have' for your collection...
As
the years pass, these lovely china items become more precious... pieces
are damaged, lost or collections are broken up. The good news for
collectors is that quality pieces should not only hold their value but
increase over time.
Condition:
In very good vintage condition commensurate for age and use. May have minor crazing which is normal for these majolica items. Some wear and an imperfection from manufacture: two small chips to the inside raised rim of the back, not seen when using or displayed...does not affect use. May have occasional spot. No fractures or general discolouration. Wonderful find!
Lovely item and ready to use...
