vintage Italian majolica fruit plate art The repetition of the spoolsA mid century Italian majolica plate with raised fruit and foliage arranged across a gently scalloped form.

Rooted in traditional Italian fruitware, it brings a relaxed Mediterranean sensibility to the table or displayed within open shelving. CONDITION In good condition with wear consistent with age and use. Small spot
