A collection faithful to Naturalism both in the theme and in the execution. Set of leaves, in its majority gathered on the countryside and from which the molds were obtained. Each imperfection, sinuosity, texture and organicity found is if not more what nature provide us. Were after added at each one of the leaves a bug, attributing a graceful, affable and distinctive character.

Named for the 19th century illustrator, sculptor and ceramicist, Bordallo Pinheiro continues the iconoclast’s legacy of unique art by applying ancestral manufacturing techniques and naturalistic motifs-inspired by Portugal’s flora and fauna-to versatile and decorative tabletop pieces.  Crafted from molds based on actual leaves found in the Portuguese countryside, this collection features the natural grooves, textures and imperfections that nature intended. Explore their distinctive elegance and character, mixed with crafted beauty in the Countryside Leaves Fig Leaf with Caterpillar, Set of 4, perfectly sized for apps, or dessert, though we also adore it just as a display.
