A lovely polychrome ceramic plate probably made in Manises, famed for its production of distinctive Spanish pottery. The present example features a superb floral motif with a pair of yellow-orange flowers accompanied by leaves. The border features a unique schematic fretwork design. The plate is reinforced by an antique tin or pewter hangar for mounting on a wall.

Condition commensurate with age with some minor chipping along the edges and subtle hairline cracks in the glaze.
