HAPPY SMALL CERAMIC PLATE ASPJHN15 JOHN DERIAN

Part of the John Derian collection, the 19th-century inspired Happy side plate from Astier de Villatte is a testament to the Parisian brand’s spiritual ethos and John Derian’s iconic découpage.

Astier de Villatte is appreciated for being the one and only studio in Paris to hold and harbour the traditions of artisanal ceramic production. Restoring the ancestral systems of moulding and stamping, the Happy plate is made using techniques from the Middle Ages which involve moulding a sheet of handmade clay, double firing the ‘biscuit’ piece and glazing the product in white enamel – a lengthy process that requires a drying time of up to one month. Characterised by John Derian’s découpage, the small plate is engraved with the brand’s signature crest – depicting an interlacing A & V. Each handmade piece tells a beautiful story, it romances and imparts a sense of nostalgia into its owner.

Pair with other ornate pieces from the John Derian collection for a coordinated decorative approach.
