A Beautiful Italian Hand Painted Pottery Wall Charger from the Bassano Pottery Works C 1925

1900 - 1920
Description

This rare early example is from the vibrant and rustic Italian pottery works established in 1921 by Luigi Zortea in Bassano del Grappa Vicenze Province. It is beautifully hand painted with a central portrait of a male partridge standing in low undergrowth. It is painted onto a white pie crust shaped and slightly dished wall charger and has a border of fruit, flowers and foliage around its shaped rim which Is finished with a blue pin striped edge. The border decoration is typical of this ware but the partridge is rare and eye catching. The charger has the early 1920s impressed mark with hand painted artists initials B.C. The reverse of the charger has its two original holes to house a cord for hanging

After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Bassano del Grappa in northern Italy became a major centre for tin-glazed earthenware production in the seventeenth century, renowned for producing hand-painted ceramics decorated with fauna, flora, and pastoral subjects.

Traditional Italian wall chargers are crafted from terracotta or earthenware clay, coated in an opaque white tin glaze, hand-decorated with mineral oxides, and fired to create a vibrant glaze finish.

Authentic early twentieth-century pieces often feature characteristic hand-painted backmarks, minor crazing within the tin glaze, visible brushstrokes, and typical regional motifs such as game birds or botanical borders.

Display plates and chargers can be mounted on a feature gallery wall, positioned on plate stands atop sideboards, or integrated into kitchen dressers to introduce subtle color and texture.

Clean gently using a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth without harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, and avoid immersing antique earthenware in water to prevent moisture entering micro-cracks in the glaze.
