Buon Ricordo Antique Plate – Northern Italian Blue Serie 1977
A hand-painted memory from an Italian table in 1977.
This vintage Buon Ricordo plate comes from the Northern Italian Blue Serie, 1977 – once given only to guests who ordered the special “Buon Ricordo” menu in selected Italian restaurants. Each plate was painted to celebrate a signature dish, so every piece carries its own story of a particular kitchen, a particular night, a particular table.
Produced at the iconic Solimene factory in Vietri sul Mare, the plate is stamped with its year of production and decorated in deep blues and warm accents that feel unmistakably Italian. Today these plates are highly collectible, treasured by design lovers, food enthusiasts and anyone who feels at home in Italy.
