A set of 6 hand-painted Italian majolica plates from the mid to late 20th century, likely produced for export. The Italy hand painted marking and the sculpted relief decoration are characteristic of postwar Italian ceramic workshops.

Each plate features raised fruit motifs such as plums, berries and pears, applied over a creamy glaze with a brushed green border. The tactile surface and vibrant glazing create a playful and almost sculptural quality, distinct from flat transferware traditions.

Made in glazed earthenware majolica, these plates are sized for salads or desserts. They bring color, texture and a sense of craftsmanship to the table, and are equally beautiful displayed on a wall.
