Focaccia Alla Robiola - Da Ciro - New York, NY, 1998
Ceramic Plate.
Artist signature fired into the plate on the front and back and numbered 59 of 1000.
10 1/5 inch diameter x 1/4 inch height
Unframed
Makes a memorable and very special gift! This beautiful, limited edition, signed and numbered bowl/plate was handmade in southern Italy by master artisans near Vietri sul Mare. It was designed by renowned American painter Mark Kostabi. From the late 1990s through the Millenium Buon Ricordo America, Inc. commissioned famous artists, including Kostabi to design plates for their flagship restaurants as special one-time only charitable fundraiser. Kostabi designed the present work for the renowned NY Italian restaurant Da Ciro. Kostabi's design depicts one of the restaurant's signature dishes, Focaccia Alla Robiola. This plate is a real collector's item -- and difficult to find -- it was created in a limited edition of only 1000 and never mass marketed. The artist's signature is fired into the plate on the front and back and numbered from the limited edition of 1000. Unfortunately, the project ended after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, which also affected many of the company's Manhattan restaurants. The reason this work is so scarce is the edition was thought to have been created on demand, and not many were actually made; many of the rest were said to have been lost after 9/11.
These plates were made in conjunction with Buon Ricordo America, Inc., an offshoot of the Italian restaurant union, Buon Ricordo (Unione Ristoranti del Buon Ricordo). The plates capture the essence of each restaurant’s local specialty, and the decoration is embellished with references to the restaurant, its local territory and products. The rim of each plate bears the name of the restaurant and the town or village it is in.
This plate was made from local clay from a quarry in Ogliara, a few kilometres from Vietri. After biscuit firing they are coated and decorated by hand by skilled craftsmen using a carbon “dusting” technique similar to that once used for Renaissance fresco painting. Once the plates were decorated they are glazed and fired for a second time to fix their vivid colors. Buon Ricordo America, Inc. later collaborated with some of America's most prominent artists, like Kostabi, to make a series of plates for iconic restaurants throughout the United States.
The back of the plate reads as follows:
"Limited edition designed by the artist to benefit charitable organizations dedicated to feeding needy home-bound elderly persons and helping children at risk from abuse and disease."
"The artist does not derive any income from the sale of this plate."
"Microwave, oven and dishwasher safe."

Makes a terrific gift. This beautiful, limited edition, extremely rare, plate signed and numbered bowl/plate was handmade in southern Italy by master artisans near Vietri sul Mare. The edition is 510 - but the reason one rarely sees this on the market is because only about half that amount were said to have been created, and the remaining ones were lost after 9/11; the plan was to create a second batch after these sold out. That was in the year 2000. Then in 2001 terrorists struck the World Trade Center. All marketing efforts ceased. It is not even known if the other plates from this edition are still around - but they are rarely found on the marketplace. It was designed by the internationally renowned American artist Peter Halley. In 2000, Buon Ricordo...
