Cheery and functional, these French ceramic garlic plates are hand painted, in Vallauris, France, a small village perched high above the French Riviera–a region with a rich history in French pottery production.
These 4″ plates are hand painted and add French style to any table. Simply grate the garlic clove on the ceramic grater section to puree the garlic, add a little extra virgin olive oil and perhaps some balsamic vinegar or herbs…dip some artisan European bread and enjoy! Gifts of these inexpensive and traditional spots of Provencal color are a well received alone or accompanied by bottle of artisan olive oil.
These lovely French pottery garlic plates, as well as a variety of Italian ceramics, European linens, kitchen items and gifts are available at www.poggibonsigifts.com,
