Deruta Galletto Red 15X11″ Scalloped Oval Serving Platter

Galletto pattern is a modified version of a pattern that came out of the Umbrian town of Orvieto in the 13^th century. In the 19^th century, centuries after Deruta had become the center of Umbrian ceramics, a rooster was added to the pattern and the leaves were also modernized.  As well as being a lovely addition to the pattern, the rooster is said to bring good fortune to the home. This ceramic platter was hand-painted by the artisans Ceramiche Sberna in Deruta, Italy.
