Bordallo Pinheiro’s white cabbage cake stand is a sleek yet striking way to serve your favourite bakes. Crafted from earthenware, each stand has an intricate cabbage design carved within it, with delicate lines and a frilly edge. This single tier stand is an elegant way to present stacks of brownies, classic sponge cakes or cheese scones. And, when you’re not baking, use it to display your fresh fruit and veg.
In the 1960s, a full cabbage tableware set was the mark of a high-society household. Many pieces were highly collectible including Bordallo Pinheiro’s iconic cabbage range. Now these hand-painted earthenware plates, bowls and dishes are back and taking the world by storm. The hand-painted nature of Bordallo Pinheiro ceramics means that no two pieces are ever exactly alike.
Mix and match this white cake stand with other pieces from the Bordallo Pinheiro collection for a full Portuguese table spread.
Each cake stand measures 31cm.
About Bordallo Pinheiro
The Portuguese ceramics studio, Bordallo Pinheiro, was set up in 1884. Brothers Raphael and Feliciano Bordallo Pinheiro started the venture, and many of the pieces today are still made to Raphael’s designs. In only twenty-one years, Bordallo Pinheiro’s bold, artistic ceramics gained international recognition. Raphael took inspiration from the flora and fauna around his home town of Caldas, as well as drawing on ideas from the Renaissance and from the Art Nouveau & Naturalism movements.
