Add a fun accent to your table setting with this gorgeous plate - a gold plated blue and white porcelain wonder! A true work of art, it is made by hand and painted by hand as well - making each one truly unique and different! 

This deep blue cobalt is a very unique way of painting porcelain! Today, there are not that many artists and factories that use this type of porcelain décor technology in home décor. It has become quite expensive and time-consuming. This makes said porcelain pieces unique & hard to find in regular houseware stores. The shiny, dark blue glaze is used to cover the pieces, after which an artist applies a thin, gold, graphic design element atop the porcelain and a special white overglaze paint, which blends the textures and inverts the colors of the glorious masterpiece. The chemical reactions of the paints and the glaze create an elegant dance of subtle wintery colors atop each piece. Photographs simply don’t do it enough justice! The richness of the paints and the elegance of each piece is felt when you hold it in your hands! You will instantly fall in love.
