- These ceramic plates were designed for asparagus, with a dip in the middle. They can be used for all kinds of small delicacies, though, and are especially nice for entertaining.

- We love the watery greens, blues, and purples of this pair, a more subtle version of majolica’s often-seen bright palettes.

- These plates are in very good vintage condition, with slight crazing and a few small spots of discoloration. Please see our detailed photos.

- Sold as a pair. less
