Tuscan Wall Plates

If you have never seen a piece of Tuscan pottery or ceramics you are in for a treat.  These pieces no matter what the pattern are beautiful.  The artisans creating these ceramics hand craft each and every item individually.  Every piece created is unique. Deruta is one of the most famous for Italian Pottery offering many patterns.  You will adore the scenes of the countryside and because each item is individually handcrafted, the sizes, shapes and colors may vary slightly. These are all characteristics of hand-made ceramics and part of what makes them unique.  You may just want to close your eyes and pick one they are so pretty.
 
You can use them anywhere in your home and they will stand out.  The colors are memorizing.  If you use the plates to eat off of you can also get a plate rack for the wall and hang them up for people to see.  The patterns are beautiful.  The hardest part is making the selection.  These Tuscan wall plates also make beautiful gifts.  You may want to start a collection for a friend and if you do then each year you can pick up a new piece for their collection.  You may decide to start your own collection and add the wall plate to a grouping and have the sconces and add a clock to have a complete look.  Then each year you can add a piece to your own collection and have your friend come over to compare the pieces you both just got.

You may just want to put a couple on the wall since they are hand painted you know they will not be the same but very close in design.  You can enjoy the Mediterranean colors or gardens depending on the style you choose and coordinate them with the furniture colors in your room.  They would also be nicely displayed in a sunroom where you would normally have plants and garden furniture.  Patio furniture is usually made of wood, bamboo or wrought iron and these pieces and colors would look beautiful against the wall.  Tuscan wall plates have an elegance of their own.  You cannot go wrong purchasing a couple of these plates and putting them throughout your home.
