I am pleased to offer a Botanic Garden Slender Columbine or Aquilegia Gracilis salad plate. This plate carries the original 'orange butterfly' version of the retired Slender Columbine.

It is mint condition with no sign of use or wear! The glaze is exceptionally shiny and transfer very colorful.


The Slender Columbine motif, was introduced in 1984 on salad plates and was retired in 2000. There are at least two versions of this motif with different insect arrangements. This plate carries the original version with a beautiful orange butterfly.
