This decorative ceramic plate from the 1930s embodies the artisanal tradition of the Dante Milani manufactory based in Montopoli, Italy. Handcrafted from clay with a diameter of approximately 22.5 cm, its shallow form is adorned with Renaissance Revival motifs characteristic of its era. The centerpiece is a large, stylized fleur-de-lis, painted in layers of burnt orange, green, black, and accented with yellow. The central composition features a double dark green border and a toothed red ribbon, while the wide rim is filled with repeated blue leafy forms interspersed with green almond-shaped elements. The matte finish, gradient coloration, and minor surface irregularities reveal the unique, handmade process. Brushstrokes are clearly visible, and the soft color transitions underscore the artisanal character. There are no visible cracks, chips, or signs of wear—this plate remains in excellent original condition, with a restrained natural patina and a maker’s signature noted on the reverse. The plate’s presence conjures the nostalgia of 1930s Italian
