Vintage Spanish Fajalauza pottery plate.
Lovely little plate from Granada in Spain with a traditional hand-painted pomegranate design in teal green and cobalt blue against a bright white glaze.
Handmade with a slightly irregular form and rustic aesthetic.
The small size of this plate makes it perfect for wall display in narrow spaces at the edge of a window or above a door.
The Fajalauza pottery style has been documented to the 16th century and takes its name from the Puerta de Fajalauza (Fajalauza Gate) within the city wall of Granada. The pomegranate seen in many designs is the symbol of Granada (Granada is Spanish for pomegranate).
Approximately 14.5cm in diameter.
Very good vintage condition with small chips and scuffs to the reverse edge (as shown in the photographs). Glaze imperfections and air bubbles from time of manufacture.
All our pieces have a past and may feature age-related marks which we believe add to their charm. If you have any questions about this item or would like to see further photographs, please do get in touch.
