Very good condition. Note: Please carefully observe the photos which are an integral part of the description. This piece is in beautiful vintage condition.

We adore the "comic book" and graphic aspect of the illustrations! It's the perfect blend of traditional Dutch craftsmanship and the playful spirit of 50s/60s design. They are not just plates; they are true conversation starters for your guests. 📏 Dimensions. Diameter: Approximately 20 cm. Ideal size for dessert, starter, or cheese.
