Cambridge Porcelain Bread and Butter Plate by Vista Alegre
Cambridge Porcelain Bread and Butter Plate by Vista Alegre
The Cambridge porcelain bread and butter plate keeps its decoration to a fine navy-and-gold border. The clear white center adds a composed small layer beside the main plate.
“I would use this little plate to carry a narrow line of color through a white table setting.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Maker / Heritage
Founded in Ílhavo, Portugal, in 1824, Vista Alegre brings a living decorative tradition to the table. Its porcelain is glazed, fired and individually checked before decoration; the factory also maintains a specialist hand-painting workshop for selected artistic pieces. Collaborations with designers such as Oscar de la Renta and Sam Baron give that long history fresh expression, from finely drawn botanicals to architectural relief. It is this combination of technical care and imaginative decoration that gives the maker its distinctive range.
