Set of two pure porcelain dinner plates, 28 cm diameter, from the Catene collection, Black. dinner plates are known to be the most versatile dishes there are. Sure, at a formal lunch or dinner they accommodate second courses, but apart from grand occasions, we can use them to serve appetizers, first courses and many other dishes. Perfect for all occasions, our Catene Black dinner plates will add a touch of beauty every time you use them. Catene is a collection of porcelain tableware, tea and coffee sets and home décor items. Their designs come from an incredible decade that marked our history. We inherited the pattern that binds each piece in the collection in four color variants (Black, Scarlet, Sapphire and Emerald) from one of the many designs created by the legendary Gio Ponti in the early 1900s, during his artistic directorship of the Studio. We have kept it in our archives and reinterpreted it in our own style to give life to a wonderful collection marked by minimalist design, an elegant and always understatedly beautiful collection that is imbued with timelessness.
