A refined set of four antique Italian hand-painted faience plates, each decorated with a distinctive armorial crest rendered in rich polychrome enamels. The designs feature classical heraldic motifs—scrolls, shields, banners, and symbolic animals—framed by softly scalloped rims with a hand-painted cobalt blue border.
These plates display the characteristic crackled glaze, painterly brushwork, and charming asymmetry associated with traditional Italian maiolica production. The variation among the armorial motifs gives the set great visual interest, whether displayed as a wall grouping or used as decorative accent plates in a cabinet or on open shelving.
