Sometimes a plate says it all.
"C'est beau l'amour" — love is beautiful — and here it's told by two mischievous piglets looking straight at you, as if they know something you have yet to discover.
This handmade ceramic plate is anything but ordinary. The warm beige background, the soft pink tones of the pigs, and the playful blue dots create a cheerful and quirky whole. The small blue heart at the top completes the story: a subtle, yet clear gesture of love. The deep blue rim gives the plate that extra bit of character — including a small imperfection here and there, as it should be with a piece that has soul.
Its charm lies in its craftsmanship: you see the maker's hand in every line.
It brings a gentle smile, a moment of calm amidst everyday hustle and bustle.
It is a playful, quirky object that gives the interior that extra touch.
This plate is perfect as a small bowl in the kitchen — for fruit, sandwiches, or simply as a decorative piece on an open shelf. But honestly: it doesn't need to hold anything to mean something. It is already a small work of art in itself.
As with everything at De Tuin Der Kunsten, it's about accessible art: affordable, different from the norm, and with a soul. This is one of those pieces with a quirk — and that's precisely why it's so beloved. It brings color, softness, and a touch of humor to a harmonious interior.
Are you unsure where it would best be placed? As an interior composer, I'm happy to help you find the right artwork for the right spot — subtle or pronounced, entirely tailored to your space.
