Les Fleurs Aubergine Floral Paper Party Plate (Set of 8)

The Les Fleurs paper plates place vintage botanical illustrations against hand-marbled grounds in the tradition of the finest French decorated papers: tropical leaves and deep botanical forms rendered with the careful draftsmanship of a 19th-century horticultural plate, set against the fluid, unrepeatable patterns of marbled paper in deep aubergine, violet, and blue. The combination is not decorative in the ordinary sense. It is a collision of two serious 19th-century traditions.

The botanical illustrations are drawn from vintage sources: carefully observed studies produced for horticultural journals across the 19th century. The marbled grounds are drawn from the tradition of the finest 19th-century bookbinders. Available in 9″ dinner and 7″ salad or dessert sizes.
