Set of Six Hand-Painted Majolica Plates from Bassano del Grappa (Mid-20th Century)

A superb example of Northern Italian craftsmanship, this set of six plates comes from the historic ceramic district of Bassano del Grappa. Signed "V. Bassano," these pieces embody the "Everyday Poetry" of the Venetian countryside.

The design features a vibrant, hand-painted wreath of laurel leaves—a classic motif of the Bassano tradition—framed by a delicate network of forest green and soft lime tones. The artisan’s brushstrokes are visible and textured, giving each plate a unique, rhythmic soul. These plates are beautiful witnesses to the mid-century Italian "Dolce Vita" at the table. They carry the marks of their history: small chips and a characteristic crazing in the glaze that enhance their authenticity, making them perfect for those who seek the soulful beauty of genuine vintage decor.
