I have a full set of Cantagalli dinnerware, purchased in NYC in the mid-1960s. The colors are: white background, yellow rim, green leaves outlined in blue with yellow leaf tips.
Does anyone know what the pattern is? It is more earthenware in style.
tks,
Barbara

The Modern Origins of Raffaellesco and Ricco Deruta Designs.
Grazia Ranoccchia, author of “Deruta-Manifatture e Ceramiche, 1920-1960″ credits Professor Alpinolo Magnini as the creator of the modern interpretations of these designs which have become so closely identified with the ceramics of Deruta. Magnini was one of the major forces in the revitalization of the ceramics industry in Deruta during the early years of the twentieth century. He had served as the technical and artistic director of Societa Anonima Maioliche Deruta, as well as director of both the Communal School of Design and Curator of the Communal Museum. Ricco Deruta has been best described as a “re-examination from the Art Nouveau perspective of the Floral Volutes of the 16th century”. The modern Raffaellesco design was, again, Magnini’s very personal attempt to modernize an ancient motif and breathe new life into the ceramics of early twentieth century Deruta production.
