The Camilla dinner plate set features hand-painted floral garlands along the rim, with each piece produced in Portugal using a traditional painting technique from the villages above Caldas da Rainha. Pink and blue blooms are applied by hand, meaning the placement varies subtly across each of the four plates. The open white centre provides a neutral ground that contrasts with the detailed rim decoration. The set of 4 is finished in earthenware ceramic consistent with the regional craft tradition.
Hand-painted in Portugal, a wreath of pink and blue blooms winds around the rim — each flower placed by hand, no two quite meeting in the same way.. The villages above Caldas da Rainha have been painting this garland for longer than anyone can remember — field flowers, observed rather than invented, running rim to rim the way they run along a garden wall in June.. JJ keeps this set of 4 dinner plates among plain white and dark stoneware. The open centre holds whatever lands on it. The garland does the rest.
