Description

This charming ceramic Small Round Plate is a delightful piece of functional folk art, meticulously hand-painted and glazed by skilled artisans from San Antonio Palopó, Guatemala. The plate features a classic circular silhouette and offers a choice between two signature artisanal styles: the “bird” design showcases a central, vibrant bird motif framed by a colorful orange and blue border with delicate floral accents, while the “plain” (liso) version is adorned with a stunning, rhythmic mandala-style pattern composed of concentric “peacock feather” teardrops in cobalt blue, forest green, and terracotta. Finished with a high-gloss glaze and a bold blue rim, these durable small plates are perfect for serving appetizers, desserts, or acting as decorative trinket dishes that capture the rich artistic heritage of the Lake Atitlán region.
