AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
GIALLETTI Deruta Decorative Plate, hand-painted Italian ceramic, Byzantine-inspired décor, 20th century (32 cm)
Important decorative wall plate in Italian Deruta ceramic, signed on the back “Gialletti – Deruta – dec. a mano”, attesting to a decor entirely hand-made.
The work features a figurative Byzantine-inspired design, with a hieratic central figure on a gold background, treated in trompe-l'œil micromosaic, characteristic of Deruta artistic productions in the mid-20th century.
The richly ornate border features polychrome floral motifs (blues, turquoises and reds), underscoring the quality of execution and the decorative ambition of the piece.
The GIALLETTI workshops, active mainly in the 1950s–1970s, are renowned for their large plates and decorative chargers aimed at the art and decoration market, blending historical references with traditional know-how.
This piece, due to its considerable diameter, legible signature, and dense decoration, is classified among display objects designed for wall presentation or for easel display.
