Black Snake Paper Party Plate

$14.00

A jet-black snake coils in tight loops across a cream plate with a fine dark rim. Drawn from an antique natural-history plate, it brings a quiet, gothic elegance to a Halloween table. Available in 9″ dinner and 7″ salad or dessert sizes.

The Design

Of the four snakes, this is the most graphic: a single unbroken length of black, folded into tight coils that read almost as calligraphy against the ivory ground. The antique engraving keeps the sheen and the muscle of the living animal, so the effect is elegant rather than eerie, closer to a naturalist's study than a spook.

The Object

Full-color print on durable, food-safe paper stock, offered in a 9″ dinner and a 7″ salad or dessert size, in packs of eight. The most versatile of the set, it pairs with any of the other snakes and slips easily onto a table built around the solid Les Classiques Black or Umber.

I found these snakes in a stack of 19th-century natural-history plates and could not resist putting them on a table. They are my favorite kind of Halloween: strange, a little beautiful, and not a cartoon in sight.
