This plate decorated in cobalt blue and metallic lustre is a reproduction of 15th century Manises ceramics. The central motif is an eight-point star, the meaning of which is eternity. The star is accompanied by atauriques and the tree of life which represents the origin of all things. It has been made in the traditional way following the techniques of the potter's wheel and hand-painting with a third firing in reduction according to the ancestral medieval technique of lustre-painted ceramics.
