A striking majolica platter featuring a lively coastal scene with colorful fish, a detailed lobster, shells, coral, and a bright lemon nestled among sea greens. The sculptural relief gives the composition remarkable depth, with each element rising from a rich glossy ground that allows the bold colors to stand out beautifully.

The surface is full of movement and texture, from the patterned scales of the fish to the segmented body of the lobster and the branching coral beneath. The deep glaze enhances the rich tones of emerald green, coral red, warm amber, and ocean blue, creating a dramatic and eye catching presentation.

At an impressive 20 inches in length, this piece makes a wonderful statement whether displayed on a wall, styled on a shelf, or placed at the center of a table. It brings a sense of coastal charm and playful elegance to any space.
