Set of Four Vintage Bordallo Pinheiro Maple Leaf Plates - Portugal, Majolica Glaze
There’s something quietly grounding about pieces that echo the natural world. This set of four vintage Bordallo Pinheiro plates, shaped as richly veined maple leaves, bring that feeling to the table - earthy, tactile and unmistakably timeless.
Crafted in Portugal, each plate is finished in a deep, variegated green glaze with subtle aubergine and ochre edging, highlighting the intricate texture of the leaf form. They sit beautifully somewhere between tableware and object - equally at home laid for a slow lunch or displayed as part of a considered kitchen wall.
These are pieces that invite you to linger: to serve simply, to gather often and to enjoy the quiet ritual of a thoughtfully set table.
