This dark, glossy aubergine earthenware platter is 24.5cm long and makes a fantastic centerpiece on your table. Use it as a fruit bowl, piled high with bananas, tangerines and other colourful fruit – or use it to dish up a steaming pile of fragrant fluffy rice, or a perhaps a spiced aubergine curry.
We also sell the 28cm aubergine dish with lid, and the larger 39cm aubergine salad dish.
The Portuguese ceramics studio, Bordallo Pinheiro, was set up in 1884. Brothers Raphael and Feliciano Bordallo Pinheiro started the venture, and many of the pieces today are still made to Raphael’s designs. In only twenty-one years, Bordallo Pinheiro’s bold, artistic ceramics gained international recognition. Raphael took inspiration from the flora and fauna around his home town of Caldas, as well as drawing on ideas from the Renaissance and from the Art Nouveau u0026amp; Naturalism movements.
