With a gorgeous, vintage and classic Italian lace design, the Arte Italica Merletto White Dinner Plate looks as lovely plated with colorful vegetables and prepared meats as it does bare on a tablescape set for Sunday brunch or a holiday gathering.

Each piece of ceramic in the Merletto collection is dried and fired using a black clay delicately glazed by dipping the clay into a mixture of powdered materials and premelted glass.

Merletto is an intricate, traditional antique Italian lace pattern artisans mold into the black clay prior to applying the antique white glaze.
