The dimensional plate has a molded bunch of asparagus in the center with two deeper wells on either side, one for a dipping sauce and one for waste. The scalloped edging has a hand painted floral border in typical Provençal colors.

Marked EM AA, the mark of the painter.

Multiples are available in excellent vintage condition – some light wear typical of faïence.
