The Plate by Rupert Spira is a rounded rectangular ceramic plate with a predominantly burnt orange color. The plate features a repeating pattern of yellow rounded vertical oval shapes outlined with a thin yellow line, resembling brush strokes. Three horizontal raised lines cross the plate, each adorned with small green tufts or buttons. The edges of the plate are slightly raised and have a decorative texture. The plate sits on a white surface against a gray background.
