Set of 5 Piatti del Buon Ricordo
The “Piatti del Buon Ricordo” are wonderfully italian. Handpainted in Vietri by Ceramiche Fratelli Solimene and decorated with illustrations of the dishes and the name of the restaurant that served them, they were introduced 60 years ago in some Italian restaurants as a marketing initiative (the man behind the idea also created the Miss Italy beauty contest). The idea was simple: every restaurant participating in the project chose and offered a typical dish from its region, and customers who ordered it received a complimentary dish decorated with the illustration of what they had just eaten. The plates soon became a collector’s item.
Set of 5, all stamped at the back, fabulous on the table or the wall. 23cm diameter each.
