This Spanish ceramic plate is striking both for its shape and color. It is hand painted in authentic Spanish ceramic colors of jeweled greens and warm earth tones. It has a very flat surface that makes it ideal for serving food and holes on the back rim allow it to be easily hung on the wall. It is completely handmade and is signed by the de la Cal artists in Toledo, Spain. Due to its size and shape, we recommend hand washing this plate. It is lead free and food safe. It is not intended for use in the microwave or oven. Artisans at small family owned factories located throughout Spain carefully handcraft the From Spain ceramic collection. Often these factories have been in the family for several generations. Everybody in the family gets involved in the creative process of making ceramic. The elders often spin and mold the clay while the young design and paint the final product. The majority of the ceramics come from Toledo and Manises, Valencia. The detailed geometric patterns, and sun-drenched colors in the From Spain Ceramic Collection bring the zest and ambience of Spain to your home. Measures 13 in.
