A set of 6 aspargus plates are decorated in different polychrome enamels offering a variety of colors and designs but they all work beautifully together. The different compartments are meant to be used as the middle one, holding the asparagus, one above for the end piece that is usually tough and the bottom one is for melted butter or sauce to dip the asparagus tip in. Great designs, bright colors and a wonderful option to use at the table or for display. Overall excellent condition with no structural defects, minor wear commensurate with age.
