Hand-crafted in Italy with a vibrant, high-gloss red glaze, each plate is whimsically sculpted to resemble a ripe garden tomato, complete with a beautifully mottled finish that provides exceptional artisanal depth. The meticulously detailed green stem serves as a decorative focal point, reflecting the playful yet sophisticated design sensibilities of 1960s Italian ceramics. These pieces bridge the gap between fine art pottery and functional dinnerware, offering a unique blend of culinary tradition and high-end artisanal flair.

Measuring 9.5" long, 8.75" wide, and 1.5" tall, these perfectly proportioned plates are ideal for serving seasonal salads, appetizers, or desserts with a touch of Mediterranean charm. They are in great vintage condition, displaying minor surface scuffs and gentle signs of age that contribute to an authentic patina, highlighting their storied mid-century origins. Whether used to anchor a maximalist "Grandmillennial" table setting or displayed as a striking set on a kitchen hutch, these plates bring a burst of permanent color and joy to your home.
