Description
Capodimonte Italian Art Hand Painted Plate with 18k Gold Trim - Measures 12" Hand Painted in Good Condition Normal Wear, See Photos. This Capodimonte Italian Art Hand-Painted Plate is a stunning example of Neoclassical revival porcelain, characterized by its intricate bas-relief and highly decorative reticulated (pierced) rim. The central motif features a vibrant, hand-painted scene of cherubs (putti) frolicking in a pastoral landscape, with one figure resting in a small pond or pool—a theme often associated with allegories of the elements or mythological play. The plate is finished with an elaborate scrolled border that incorporates delicate floral medallions and is extensively detailed with 18k gold trim, which provides a luxurious contrast to the creamy porcelain and the textured, "crazed" glaze typical of vintage Italian ceramics.
