A quiet walk through the forest, translated into ceramic form. The Bordallo Pinheiro Woods fruit plate captures the poetry of bark, foliage, and fauna in a piece designed for daily pleasure and refined display. Within plates, it stands out for its natural elegance and narrative detail, bringing the hush of the woods to the modern table through the distinctive eye of Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro.

Thoughtful Function for Everyday Use

Beauty is effortless when it works well. This plate is part of the brand’s hand painted complements and is crafted for contemporary living: suitable for microwave and dishwasher safe to streamline service and clean-up. As a fine ceramic piece, it should not be used in the oven and is thermal shock NON resistant; mindful care preserves the luminous glaze and crisp relief. These practical notes make the nature inspired ceramic plate as reliable as it is evocative, perfect for fruit, desserts, or small courses with an artisanal touch.

Motifs of the Forest

The Woods design reveals a gallery of woodland characters and palettes: Pheasant, Hare, Wild Boar, and Deer, each rendered with lifelike nuance upon Green or Brown grounds. Fine linework and layered tones give depth to feathers and fur, while the rim’s subtle texture echoes tree rings and leaf veins. The result is an eloquent decorative wildlife plate that speaks softly yet leaves a vivid impression, pairing easily with linen, wood, and smoked glass for an understated, immersive mise en place.

Handmade in Terracotta

Artisans model, glaze, and finish each plate by hand in warm terracotta, the signature medium of Raphael Bordallo Pinheiro. The human touch is palpable, slight variations in tone and brushwork make every piece a one-of-one example of Bordallo Pinheiro. This tactile authenticity anchors the plate within the world of handmade terracotta dinnerware, where craft and character matter as much as line and color.
