Each plate features a hand-painted 18th century figure (male and female) elegantly attired and reaching outside the center portrait medallion with a handful of grapes -- in classic trompe l'oeil style! Perfect for a dazzling tabletop, cabinet, or wall display, these plates will delight guests with their elegance and whimsy. They are marked and signed on the bottom.

These plates come in sets of two -- one male and one female per set. A total of five sets are available. Please note that because the plates are hand-painted, there are slight variations in the renderings of the figures -- although when viewed from a distance, they appear nearly identical. Please also note that the original purchaser of these plates might have used them for dining, as they exhibit light wear consistent with such use. This minor wear does not detract from the overall look of the plates on display. See less
