Portuguese Earthenware Decorative Plate from Alcobaça

About the Item

This decorative plate in Portuguese earthenware from Alcobaça is a piece that perfectly exemplifies the traditional ceramic art of the region. Its vibrant and fluid polychrome decoration is composed of hand-painted floral motifs, reflecting the typical aesthetics of Alcobaça faience. The delicate flowers and leaves, depicted with an impressive level of detail, spread across the entire surface of the plate, creating an organic and harmonious pattern. The flower petals appear in reddish tones and yellow centers, while the blue foliage complements the warm colors, resulting in a combination of tones that conveys freshness, vitality and a touch of exuberant nature. This mix of colors gives the dish a timeless charm, highlighting the intrinsic beauty of handmade ceramics.
