Crafted in Italy for the esteemed label Les-Ottomans Home Design, each plate features a classic six-well configuration surrounding a central sauce reservoir. The undulating, scalloped rims echo a biomorphic, star-like silhouette that feels both timelessly classical and distinctly mid-century modern.
The artistry shines in the meticulous majolica-style decoration. Rendered in a brilliant palette of cobalt and sky blue over a crisp, milky-white glaze, the center boasts a stylized floral rosette with dramatic, feather-like acanthus leaves radiating outward between each well. Every individual oyster well is framed by delicate, hand-brushed blue radiating lines, mimicking the fluting of a sea shell, while a charming dashed border traces the wavy edge of the rim.
Perfect for sophisticated coastal entertaining, these striking plates bring an element of elevated resort glamour to a formal dining table, a sunlit loggia brunch, or an elegant bar setup. When not in use, their sculptural forms and vivid botanical motifs make them exceptional display pieces for a china cabinet or plate wall. See less
