One plate holds a full artichoke head, its leaves loosening at the base, ringed by trailing greens; the other plate, a bundle of scallions with roots still fanning out at the edge. Small beetles tucked into the foliage give both pieces the feel of a botanical study more than tableware, right down to the pull of a leaf mid-curl. Set them on a wall or let them sit out on open shelving; either way, each one rewards a closer look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarked \"D2\" on the underside with a small painted blue dot, likely a decorator or pattern mark rather than a factory stamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIMENSIONS:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9\" D x 1\" D (each)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eORIGIN:\u003c\/strong\u003e France\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePERIOD:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1850s \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMATERIALS:\u003c\/strong\u003e Faience, enamel, glaze\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONDITION:\u003c\/strong\u003e Artichoke plate has a chip near the rim.
