Fleure Large Hand-Painted Ceramic Serving Plate by A loja da Ceramica
The large Fleure serving plate is a broad, shallow ceramic piece with enough depth for salads, vegetables, fruit, or family-style dishes that need a generous surface. Wheel-thrown and hand-painted in Portugal, its blue floral motif gives a practical serving form the presence of a decorative object.
At nearly twelve inches across, the plate is substantial without becoming difficult to pass around a table.
“A good serving plate should make the food look abundant rather than crowded. I like this one for salads and vegetables because the blue pattern still appears around the edges, even once the plate is full.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Maker / Heritage
A loja da Ceramica works from Portugal’s Alentejo ceramic tradition. The Fleure collection is individually thrown and hand-painted by potter António, with a blue floral motif co-designed with artist Gabrielle de Saint Venant and informed by Portuguese folk decoration.
