Rare Vintage Portuguese 'Bordallo Pinheiro' Majolica Glazed Ceramic Cheese/Cake Plate/Platter. A botanical motif abounds in this piece from the handles made of grape clusters to the center medallion featuring the same surrounded by a border of basketweave. Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro was one of the most influential people of nineteenth century Portuguese culture. In 1884 Bordallo began his ceramics production at the Fábrica de Faianças in Caldas, Portugal revealing pieces of great technical, artistic and creative quality, developing azulejos, panels, pots, table centerpieces, vase busts, fountain basins, pitchers, plates, perfume bottles, and vases- usually adopting the fauna and flora as decorative inspiration. The main ingredients of Bordallo’s productions were color, exuberance and happiness along with a high technical level achieved mainly in modelling and glazing. Maker's backstamp on the back. Whether you use this as a show stopper cheese platter or as an elegant cake plate, the results will be stunning! NOTE: If you love Majolica and/or Bordallo Pinheiro, check out my shop as I have a treasure trove of great pieces.
