Set of 3 terracotta Italian plates Signed and stamped Italy art pottery offers dishes futuristic design
This listing includes all 3 plates shown in the pictures. Each plates measures approximately 7 7/8" in diameter.
These plates are FANTASTIC!!! We have never been able to name down the artist's signature / initials or a possible manufacturer. The only example we offers have been able to find is an auction house is Europe attributing these to Tulio D'Alvise with an estimate in worth of $2000-$3000 (euros). The one plate is exactly the same as the bottom left that we show (all of their plates were much larger than my size as well), except there were 4 auction plates and their plates did not have the initials. I will be happy to send you the link if you message me directly, but can not confirm this attribution definitively.
It has been suggested that my plates were possibly a copy of the plates referenced above by a student. They are a mystery to me, but they need to go to a home where they are appreciated.
Condition is shown in the pictures. No cracks, but some glaze missing in places- the places on the rim of the plate may have chipped out over the time, the spots shown on the designs themselves most likely happened during the manufacturing process where the glaze didn't fully cover the clay portion. Other sand deposits exist throughout. Overall in good condition. Feel free to ask me any additional questions if you have them!
Thanks for looking- get them while they last!
