Piatto a catino (basin plate): a traditional medieval form, a deep plate with a wide flat rim.
ø 52 cm
Plate with a flat rim, rounded edge, and ring base.
This mezza maiolica plate is entirely handmade in our workshop in Pitigliano, Tuscany. The decoration, inspired by medieval iconographic heritage, is executed in the traditional colours of copper green and manganese, typical of Maiolica Arcaica.
The shapes and decorations evoke the medieval tradition, reinterpreted through artisanal craftsmanship that is attentive and respectful of historical techniques. Each piece originates from a manual process that makes every creation unique, with slight variations in shape and colour that testify to its authenticity.
Designed for both daily use and as a decorative element, this is an object capable of combining functionality, historical value, and timeless beauty.
