Carlo Brisco | Trade Plate - Fishmonger
$ 445.00
10.5" diameter x 1.25"
Thrilled to feature this stunning piece from British artist Carlo Briscoe.
This "trade plate" was inspired by 17th century English Delftware "barber bowls" which were originally made for barbers to display in their shop windows. Depicting the tools of their trade, these bowls were oftentimes finished with a highly decorative border, designed to attract passers by.
In her recent collection, Carlo has created Trade Plates for professions such as blacksmiths, tailors, glovers, beekeepers, and in this beautiful specimen, fishmongers!
Carlo resides in a rural village in West Wales with her artist husband, Ed Dunn.
