​Elevate your collection with a foundational piece of design history. This exquisite oblong octagonal platter represents the early artistry of John Derian, dating back to 1989—the very infancy of his iconic East Village studio.
​Design & Aesthetic
​This piece marries traditional decoupage techniques with a sophisticated, curated textile aesthetic. It features:
​Central Motif: The timeless Waverly "French Country Life" toile, capturing the charm and pastoral elegance of 18th-century European scenes.
​The Border: A crisp, classic Waverly houndstooth edge that provides a modern, graphic contrast to the delicate toile.
​The Form: A striking octagonal silhouette that offers a more architectural and rare profile than standard oval plates.

Care Instructions
As is characteristic of high-end vintage decoupage, this platter is a delicate work of art.
Important: This item is not dishwasher safe and should never be submerged in water. To preserve the vintage paper and adhesive, it must be carefully wiped clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth only.
Whether displayed on a plate stand as a focal point or used as a dry-service vanity tray, this 1980s Derian original is a must-have for the serious collector of Americana and folk-inspired decor.
