Antique Artistic Faience Plate – Santo Stefano Di Camastra, Sicily
Remarkable artistic plate in ceramic from Santo Stefano di Camastra, a town renowned for the quality and creativity of its faience production.
The piece stands out for its original composition and entirely hand-crafted execution: the central section in unglazed red clay, finely modelled in high relief depicting a basket of flowers, is firmly joined to the glazed part during the clay modelling process, and not applied after firing — a rare feature demonstrating the artisan’s outstanding technical skill.
The pierced and delicately shaped rim is decorated with blue floral motifs on a cream background, under a glossy glaze.
