Vintage Majolica Deruta Raffaellesco Decorative Ceramic Wall Plate 14'75 inches

About the Item

A large vintage Deruta Raffaellesco decorative wall plate with scalloped rim. Majolica hand-painted with magnificent detailing and artwork, extraordinary level of detail, evoking the splendors of the Golden Age of Italian ceramics. The Deruta Raffaellesco pattern traces its origins to the 16th century and was inspired by Raphael’s Frescoes in the Vatican. One of Deruta's most popular and enduring Renaissance patterns adorned in mythical animals, Raffaellesco is a compassionate deity bestowing good luck to seagoing merchants with the wind puffs steaming from the dragon's mouth. Among the most popular and enduring Italian Majolica patterns, and the graceful arabesques of Raphael's famous frescoes. Large parade plate in high temperature underglazed Majolica ceramic, decorated in polychromy. The stylized dragons of the central motif was reputedly painted first by Raphael, a master painter and architect of the Italian High Renaissance. The uniqueness of these products depends on the very high artistic level with which they have been decorated, which makes each piece a unique work. Hand made in Deruta-Italy. - All Deruta of Italy products are lead and cadmium Free. 14.75" in Diameter. Colors: black, golden yellow, linen, vanadium, green, orange, cerium oxide (with a grey tonality), yellow. Made in Italy. Hand Painted and Hand Crafted. Great Gift of Authentic Italian Pottery. Majolica ceramic is determined by the ancient process, unchanged over time and handmade, which we observe to the letter in the creation of our artworks: painting ceramics is a very complex, fascinating and insidious art, but it is precisely the human and imperfect sign that makes every piece so characteristic and totally unique. deBlona's essence is represented by the interpretation of the color and by an unrepeatable taste, with which we want to give new chromatic emotions. Majolica accompanies the history of mankind, telling its existence for centuries: here, in our Atelier, we want to keep on narrating our time. " Labor Deruta" Handpainted in the back.

  • Swedish Floral Organic Modern Ceramic Wall Plate / Centerpiece, 1950s
    By Tilgmans Keramik
    Located in Copenhagen, DK
    Vintage handmade fully glazed Swedich midcentury modern wall platter / centrepiece with organic, floral decor depicting a gazelle with a direct gaze surrounded by vegetation in brown, ochre, green, white and bright pink colors on a striped dark blue background created with the experimental sgraffito technique that Tilgmans became famous for. Designed and handpainted in the late 1950s by Eivor Lang and manufactured by German/Finnish Paul Harald Tilgman in his workshop in the small town of Kortedala close to Gothenburg, Sweden. Milky white glaze on the base and sides with curved, muted green decor framing the image along the edge. Three holes for hanging - two in use with metal wire. Signed under base. An handpainted piece in beautiful condition. Paul Harald “Harry” Tilgmann was born in Dresden, Germany in 1904 and emigrated to Sweden during WWII where he started Tilgmans Keramik (= Ceramics) in 1948 in the small town of Utbynäs close to Gothenburg. Tilgman had 16 employees working for him and when he hired the Polish refugee Marian Zawadzki (1912-1978) as artistic director in 1953, Tilgman Keramik started experimenting with the distinct sgraffito technique. The sgraffito technique consists of carving fine lines into the background of a design through a light colored glaze down to a dark grey clay slip. This created a unique textured ground which has become a style associated with Tilgmans Keramik in particular. The decorative elements also appear to be outlined with a carved line and then hand painted with overglazes where birds, fish, flowers, butterflies and other animals were a common theme. This type of work was the most popular in midcentury Sweden alongside Tilgmans small animal figurines...
