Magnificent and rare plate modeled after the Chinese ‘tobacco leaf’ export porcelains in the Imari style

This beautiful Geminiano Cozzi dish from Venice shows a decorative ‘tobacco leaf’ decor that is based on Chinese export porcelain in the Imari style. The large leaves and flowers are adorned with fine golden borders. Small scattered flowers are set against the white background. The delicate curved edge of the plate, which is heightened with gold, is very elegant. The plate comes with a small cup, also made by Geminiano Cozzi. It represents a fine landscape scene with a goat and scattered flowers on the back.


The plate is not marked. The cup shows the red anchor mark by Cozzi to the underside. Both pieces are in good condition, showing light wear to the edges consistent with age. The dimensions of the plate are 29 x 24 cm, and the cuppa is 4 cm in height and 7.2 cm in diameter.


Geminiano Cozzi

Born in Modena, Geminiano Cozzi moved to Venice in 1754 and worked in the ceramic manufactory of Nathaniel Friedrich and Maria Dorothea Hewelcke. After the company had gone into bankruptcy in 1763, Cozzi operated independently from 1764. Until his death in 1798, the company prospered. Afterwards, it may be continued by his brother Vincenzo until 1812. Today, Cozzi products are preserved in many private and public porcelain collections.
