Description

This famous plate is exposed at the MET museum, but ours is not a mere reproduction of an important historical work. We digitally restored the original, created a bigger pattern, and we also covered up some nudity to adapt this work to a dining context. We used the original elements to cover the figures (leaves, flowers, drapery), in order to preserve the authenticity of the work. 

The original plate was produced in Faenza, Italy, around 1530, and it is an amazing example of "majolica", tin-glazed earthenware. The scene is probably an exotic representation of Paradise, where yellow and orange blooms intertwine on a cobalt blue background. Among the vines, primeval women and men engage in exploration, hunting, and courtly love. What's really interesting is that here women are hunters and fighters, as if the artist envisioned a place where women were powerful, a concept that was way ahead of the medieval times when it was painted.

Our unbreakable plate retains the looks of ceramics without the danger of breaking it, because it is made of a special and totally food-safe resin. It can be used as a dinner plate or as a decoration to hang on the wall; it can also sit on a stand because it looks like an authentic ceramic plate. We are sure it will draw the attention of your guests!
