Description

This attractive ceramic Small Heart Dish is a unique piece of functional folk art, meticulously hand-painted and glazed by artisans from San Antonio Palopó, Guatemala, and is sold individually. The small, heart-shaped plate features a slightly raised rim and showcases two distinct hand-painted designs: the dish on the bottom features a central starburst pattern composed of the region’s characteristic high-contrast, rhythmic teardrop motifs in blue, aqua, and terracotta, while the dish on the top features a central hummingbird surrounded by large, stylized blue and pink flowers and foliage. Both pieces are finished with a bold cobalt blue rim, beautifully integrating the detailed artistry of the Lake Atitlán region into decorative serving ware.
