\n Piero Fornasetti Porcelain Recipe Cook Plates,
Calcutta Minestrone and Corfam A La Du Pont,
Made for Fleming Joffe,
Silkscreen & Transfer,
With Original Faux Hide Box
1960s-early 70s.<\/p>\n

These two Piero Fornasetti porcelain plates are from a series made for the Fleming Joffe hide company in New York City. These were originally given as a pair to clients in a box with a faux hide covering. It is very rare to find two plates staying together like these.<\/p>\n

Included with the two plates is the paper separator and the original Thank you card which reads,
“We are happy to send you a New Year’s present. These plates have been created for us by Piero Fornasetti in Milano, Italy. Each year you will receive more until we reach the end of the series. We Wish you and your family a very happy New Year. Fleming Joffe Ltd.”<\/p>\n

Diameter: 10 1\/4 inches x 1 inch high<\/p>\n

The Fleming Joffe company was a small leather goods company in New York. Fornasetti was not the only famous artist this company worked with. Andy Warhol produced ads and copy for them as well as decorating their show booths and showroom. They also commissioned Ogden Nash to pair his bouncy text with Warhol’s drawings.<\/p>\n

Reference: Fornasetti: The Complete Universe, Barnaba Fornasetti, Page 614, #162 for a selection of examples from this series of fourteen plates which were issued in twos at New Year and given to clients of the company.<\/p>\n
